Mario P.
Illustrator & Brand Designer | Packaging, Merch & Mascots
Commercial illustration and brand design for consumer, sports and lifestyle brands: packaging, merch collections, mascots and brand identity. Hand-drawn by me (no AI) and delivered print-ready, with full commercial rights. WHAT I MAKE - Packaging & labels — illustrated product lines, multi-SKU systems, dielines and print-ready files - Merch & apparel — complete collections built from your brand, from tees and hoodies to hats and stickers - Mascots & characters — brand mascots with poses, expressions and real-world applications - Custom illustration — original artwork for labels, products, apparel and campaigns - Brand identity — logo, color, typography and guidelines that tie it all together WHY CLIENTS HIRE ME Most designers either illustrate or build brand systems. I do both, so your packaging, merch and mascot look like one brand instead of three different styles. 9+ years in commercial illustration and branding, 90+ projects on Upwork, Top Rated Plus. HOW I WORK 1. Brief — you share the product, audience and references; I confirm scope and a fixed price in writing. 2. Concepts — hand-drawn sketches first, so we agree on direction before anything is polished. 3. Refinement — vector production and revisions. 4. Delivery — AI, SVG, PDF and PNG files, dielines or print specs where needed, and a short usage guide. Send me your product or brand and what you need it to do — I'll reply with a scoped fixed-price proposal.
