Carolina Vázquez is a freelance illustrator born in Buenos Aires, Argentina who was endlessly inspired by books and animation from an early age. She graduated from Palermo University with a degree in Illustration Design in 2021 and, since then, she has been working on children’s illustration projects such as picture books, magazines, and board games. She enjoys working mainly digitally, creating magical, nature-themed illustrations with cute characters and working with color and light to create an atmosphere that’ll immerse the viewer in the story. Along with creating art, Carolina enjoys swimming and spending time with her dog, Watson. To this day, she still loves reading novels and watching animated movies, which greatly inspire her work!
