Hello, I’m Malu :) Nice to meet you!

Happy, anxious, curious person who loves getting lost in small details.
If I had a superpower it would be become an animal and talk to them.

I’ve been professional illustrator for 10+ years. I’m represented internationally by Advocate Art and have been happily working with dreamy clients. Lately I’ve been growing my own personal dream of building my own shop and club with nonchalant critters that I create as personal emotional companions.

Clients include:
Ballon Media
Usborne
Igloo Books
lake Press
WHSmith
Design House Greetings
Lake Press
Oxford University Press
