Hi, I am Andrea! I'm a spanish Illustrator from Lleida. I specialize in illustration for Children's books, Concept art for videogames and animation, and Comics. Since I was a little girl my passion has always been drawing and creating. Hundreds of pages and notebooks remain as evidence of this, as well as school books, napkins and even the walls of my old home. I studied Fine Arts in Barcelona and then I trained to work in film and video games, but life takes many turns and I ended up landing in the publishing world, illustrating books and covers, and I realized that this was my true vocation. Children’s and youth books and fantasy art are my main interests and at the same time my great inspirations, in addition to Celtic folklore and medieval art. _Website not available.
