My name is Flavia Zorrilla Drago and I was born and raised in Mexico City. When I was a child my dream was to become a mermaid. Sadly that didn't happen, but around the same age, something else did: I started drawing.

 

I started my career as a graphical designer and then I became an illustrator, which has given me the opportunity to live and travel doing what I love in different countries such as Spain, France, and England, where recently I graduated from the Children's Book Illustration MA at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge.

 

I consider myself a versatile illustrator who likes to work in all kinds of projects like: children's books, branding, packaging, advertising, fashion, apps, lettering or character design. I love colour, textures and shapes and enjoy creating them with different materials and a bit of digital sorcery. My new dream is to become a picturebook author and to create stories of my own.

 

When I am not drawing I enjoy the normal things: cooking, running, spending time with the people I love, watching horror movies, and collecting odd medieval images and Soviet propaganda.
