Hi! I'm Itziar Hazas, an illustrator and character artist based in Santander. I graduated with a degree in Fine Arts from the Complutense University of Madrid, where I specialized in color work during my final year. I've gained experience working on animation projects like The Cubby House Project, Der Kleine Rabe Socke, and 4 Amigos y Medio, as well as illustrating for several children's book publishers such as MascotBook and BaBiDiBu. Currently, I focus on personal projects where I both author and illustrate stories, blending traditional and digital techniques to create magical worlds and characters. I love bringing stories to life through my drawings and hope to continue growing in this creative field.
