About me
I’m Cami, Italian – Finnish illustrator. I work in traditional and digital media. I love painterly textures and mixing colours, but I use Procreate and Photoshop too. I see nature as an endless source of inspiration, wonders and healing. I like to use surrealism into my work and create atmospheric images that support abstract ideas. One of them is often mindfulness, a great resource for wellbeing. My wish is to uplift the viewer and raise awareness on self help techniques. I’d love to work for wellness/food/travel magazines, children books writers/publishers and brands looking for painterly repeat patterns. Graduate at Cambridge School of Art (Illustration BA). Previously, I lived in London and attended textile design courses at Central Saint Martins and painting courses in Italy. I’m open to commissions and group projects. Contact me and I’ll be happy to reply. email : info@camiruohonen.com
