About

Hi, I’m Fabiola Nunez, an illustrator and animator with a strong foundation in character design, storyboarding, and background painting. I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Animation from the Savannah College of Art and Design (Cum Laude) and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration from Instituto de Diseño de Caracas, and I enjoy bringing ideas to life through a mix of traditional drawing and digital media. I collaborate closely with clients to create visuals that tell meaningful stories, whether it’s a packaging portrait series or a large-scale mural.

I thrive in creative teams, manage projects end-to-end, and continually explore new techniques across media. My work focuses on color, composition, and emotional resonance, and I’m passionate about turning concepts into polished, engaging artwork that connects with audiences.

Designed a custom logo for the ‘Black Rhino’ cigar brand, drawing inspiration from the strength and majesty of the black rhinoceros. The client requested a distinctive, character-driven approach that incorporated a smoking cigar to reflect the brand’s identity. I developed a stylized rhino illustration that maintains an elegant and premium aesthetic while conveying confidence and character.

The final design was created for use across cigar bands, packaging, and promotional advertising materials, helping establish a memorable and recognizable visual identity for the brand.
