Creativity with a distinctive color palette.

Her classmates used to be her clientele, but that has changed completely.

Based in Bogotá, Colombia, Carolina loved animé, manga and video game art as she grew up, later discovering the artwork of James Jean, Andrew Hem and Fuco Euda, who have been key influences on her career and style. She loves vinyl records and bands like Placebo, Mew and Mars Volta, and studied Visual Arts with a focus on Graphic Art in Bogotá, achieving a master’s degree.

Approach

Sketching her initial ideas either on paper or digitally, Carolina determines her composition, refines her sketching then blocks in the main colours. She finishes her image, fine tuning detail and colour, on her computer.

Style

Carolina’s initial style was dreamlike, spacy and complex, with plenty of detail and effects. As her career has progressed, she has honed a simpler approach with strong, balanced compositions, restrained-yet-lively colour schemes and just the right amount of detail and texture.

On the other hand I would love to be paid for travelling to other places to speak about my work.Why is illustration such a powerful medium?Because you get to give life to ideas.What makes a really good client brief?A clear idea, examples, expectations and references of your work that they thought fit the job.How much of your work is hand drawn?Well, I do draw with a cintiq, so everything I guess, except the textures when I use them.What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given?To not think about death when you are alive because when your dead you are not going to think in being alive.
