Gabriel Sorondo – Designer

I'm in illustrator in Miami, Fl specializing in children's book illustrations with a fantastical twist or just a simple wholesome one. If it has a monster in it or some sort of creature even better! But drawing kids and animals is fun too! Ultimately I love to explore the unknown through my illustrations.

I enjoy designing characters and things with teeth. Weird, I know, there's just something about drawing teeth.

I've self-published two children's books through KDP; a short book about the pandemic from the perspective of a 3 year old and the other a cookbook for children complete with recipes, illustrations of food and every step involved. It was a great opportunity to really explore the characters and really understand the scope of work that is involved in creating such projects. These 2 were done traditionally (and colored digitally).

In working relationships I love nothing more than to be 100% transparent about everything. It is THE best way to work in order to ensure a solid understanding of what both parties are looking to accomplish and to build a strong and enjoyable experience collaborating.

Additionally, I earned a BFA in Illustration from Ringling College of Art+Design worked as toy designer for 9 years, and now a Multimedia designer for a large corporation in the vacation industry.

Hope to hear from you soon! (who ever you are :))
