Valeria is a freelance illustrator currently living in a small town in South Wales where she studied BA Illustration at Swansea College of Art.
Valeria enjoys creating a wide range of illustrations from humorous cute characters to editorial and food illustration. Her style could be described as a quirky, funny with loose sketchy lines mixed with vibrant watercolour.
She is inspired by her everyday life, things like the food she is eating, the animals she is meeting and the world she is seeing. Valeria also spends a lot of her free time enjoying forest walks with her dog, Boris, who is her biggest inspiration.
Her work is mainly digital watercolour but also using traditional methods such as ink, coloured pencils and watercolours.
