Lucia B.
Children's book illustrator
Stories are what I do best. I'm a children's book illustrator with a strong narrative art direction approach, and I’ve illustrated more than 90 published books since 2013. My background in Film and Animation taught me to think beyond individual images and focus on narrative, emotion, character development, pacing, and visual flow. Every illustration should move the book forward and help readers connect with the characters. I work digitally, combining the flexibility of digital tools with painterly textures and traditional-media influences to create warm, engaging illustrations. I can also handle the full graphic side of the book, from cover design and interior layout to preparing the final files for publishing. When you work with me, you're not just hiring someone to create illustrations. You're working with an experienced publishing professional who understands how children's books are built -from character consistency and visual storytelling to production and final delivery. If you're looking for someone who cares as much about the story as the artwork, I'd love to hear about your project.
