Children's book Illustrator - Whimsical, Colorful Style

Hi! I'm Naty Scabuso — a passionate and professional children's book illustrator based in Mar del Plata, Argentina. Since I was a child, I've dreamed of bringing stories to life through drawings — and that's exactly what I do today with joy, dedication, and heart. 🎨 What I offer: ✏️Children's book illustrations ✏️Book covers ✏️Storyboards ✏️Coloring book pages ✏️Cartoon and custom illustrations ✏️Wedding & party portraits in a playful, illustrated style ✏️Anything related to children’s illustration 💡 100% hand-drawn (I don’t use AI) 🌈 My style is warm, expressive, and full of color, texture, and personality. I love developing characters and visual worlds that connect emotionally with young readers. 🖌 My process: 🖍️ We first develop the characters and style together 🖍️ Then I create sketches — we refine them as needed 🖍️ Once approved, I move on to the full-color illustrations 🖍️ I deliver final files in PSD, JPEG, PNG, and print-ready PDF 📚 I’ve worked on picture books, educational content, games, covers, and various freelance editorial projects for a wide range of age groups. Outside the studio, I love nature, movement, travel, and spending time with my dog Groot 🐾 ✨ Let’s create something beautiful together! I’d love to hear about your story and help you bring it to life through illustration.
