About

I am a Designer and Illustrator with 10+ years of experience creating album artwork and visual narratives inspired by music, culture, and storytelling. My work is particularly suited to rock, folk and pop projects, where authenticity, emotion, and a strong sense of place are essential.

I enjoy collaborating closely with musicians to translate songs, lyrics, and personal stories into meaningful cover designs that feel timeless, handcrafted, and deeply connected to the spirit of the music. Through illustration, typography, and visual composition, I create artwork that helps artists express their identity and connect with their audience.

I designed Stilte’s second album and developed its full visual identity, covering the disc itself, its packaging, official posters, and T-shirts.

You can explore the full branding on Behance:

For this release, Viaje a Ixtlán presented two contrasting records under a single title: Calma.

With 8 new songs—4 per record—Calma I stays closer to its predecessor, Vol. II, featuring Sergio Ch. (Los Natas / Ararat) on “El Río” and “Atemporal” as the only acoustic track. The first part leans into a more psychedelic, ethereal sound, mostly with vocals.

The branding included both album covers, the 8 tracks as individual singles derived from the main visuals, and a set of animated pieces for social media.

In 2023, I was invited by Martin Irusta and his project SUPERTIERRA to design a new cover for their second album, Estoner Bailable. The result continues to fill me with pride. I also made some additional artwork to complete the visual universe of the project, which is led by four beautiful tracks full of psychedelic and heavy rock.
