Hello, my name is Jorge De la Paz, and I'm an illustrator based in Santiago, Chile. My illustrations are a fusion of innovative shapes and textures, reflecting my passion for experimentation in art. With a diverse background in advertising, editorial, and commercial illustration, I bring a unique perspective to my work. I find inspiration in a variety of sources, from TV series, movies, and animation to my hobbies of cycling, collecting figurines, and nurturing a multitude of plants. A firm believer in creativity, I infuse my illustrations with a touch of humor, spirituality and a vision for a more supportive society.
Having collaborated with esteemed clients like Domestika, Bank Santander, and the Government of Chile, I take pride in my professionalism and dedication to each project. One of my recent highlights includes a project for the Ministry of Tourism of Chile, where my illustrations adorned a bus, showcasing my work on a grand scale. My creative process involves meticulous planning, from initial sketches by hand to the final digital coloring stage. With a background in graphic design and a specialization in editorial illustration, I offer a unique blend of skills in layout, typography, and color theory, ensuring a holistic approach to every project.
Drawing inspiration from anime, cartoons, and comic books, I find solace in the simple pleasures of life, like taking walks with my dog to spark new creative ideas. As an artist driven by the desire to make a positive impact through my illustrations, I strive to contribute meaningfully to the world. My loyal 12-year-old dog serves as a constant muse, inspiring me with his companionship and unwavering support. With a heart full of creativity and a mind brimming with ideas, I navigate the world of illustration with a blend of passion, professionalism, and a touch of whimsy.
