Lucia Cerda – Designer

Cat lover and freelance illustrator based in Barcelona with a very expressive and colourful style, I specialise in humour and comic books.

Overview

My name is Lucía. I am a graphic designer and illustrator with 6 years of experience. I work really well under pressure and am very responsible with deadlines. I love to work alongside authors to understand their ideas and make them come alive in the form of illustrations, I love collaborating and working together to get the best result.

My style is very expressive and colourful, I specialise in humour and comic books, as well as children's books. I would be love to work in book covers, short comic books or even illustrated pages for children's books.

I have had experience in advertising agencies, creating illustrated elements for brands and their advertisements.

I usually try to include humour with a mix of naivity and innocence.

The techniques I use are digital drawing with software such as Procreate or Adobe Illustrator but I also love experimenting with analog techniques such as crayons, ink or coloured pencils.
