María Dresden

María Dresden – Designer

Hi, I am a freelance Illustrator specializing in YA and children’s books who loves to tell stories and give emotions to the characters!

Overview


Hello!


I'm María, a freelance Illustrator and concept artist living in Seville, Spain.

I illustrated book covers, children books, webtoons, mobile games, mobile apps, event posters and I made my books and comics.


I really love books, comics and animation. Since I was a child my dream was to be an illustrator.


I love cozy fantasy, romantic scenes and fairytales. I really love cute things but at the same time I like doing gothic and horror aesthetic like Crimson Peak.


I work with Disney and Ravensburger on Disney Lorcana trading card game as a freelance artist.


I've worked with Planeta, Penguin Random House, Audible and other publishers.


I can adapt my artstyle depends of what the client needs. I usually work in my anime/disney style but I can do more minimal style or more complex depend of the project or the target.


I can do lettering and designs parts too. I worked almost 4 years at illustrator and main designer in the mobile game industry.


If you like to work with me all the references and ideas are welcome, I will try to give live to your projects in the best way I can.


Looking foward to collaborating on fun projects! Have a nice day and thanks for checking my profile :)


Best,


María
