Hello, I'm Lidia Fernández Abril, from the charming city of Valladolid, Spain. My art style draws inspiration from animation, boasting vibrant colors and expressive characters with a touch of girlish charm. Working primarily in digital mediums like Photoshop, Procreate, and Illustrator, I find joy in crafting characters and atmospheric illustrations, a passion stemming from my background in animation and love for comics and graphic novels.

I believe in continuous learning and skill enhancement, finding solace in traditional painting, reading, music, playing the piano, singing, movies, swimming, and cherishing moments with loved ones. Advocating for children's education and women's rights globally is a cause close to my heart, honoring the memory of my late father by preserving my inner childlike wonder and optimistic spirit.

My creative journey has seen notable achievements, including contributing to award-winning Spanish animated films like "Planet 51" and "The Cid," recognized with prestigious Goya awards. Exhibiting my illustrations at "Ilustra Laguna" in Valladolid's public library has been a gratifying experience. Whether bringing to life the enigmatic Snape from the Harry Potter universe or curating the "Taylor Swift coloring book," my dedication to meeting deadlines and delivering high-quality work shines through. Renowned for my expressive characters, effective communication, attention to detail, and captivating backgrounds, I blend my formal training in arts and illustration with self-taught digital art skills honed through diverse courses and professional experiences in Madrid's animation industry.

Immersed in a world of creativity and storytelling, my artistic influences range from classic Disney animations to European graphic novels and anime. Drawing inspiration from movies, art books, and music, I channel these sources into my narratives and illustrations, striving to evoke specific moods and emotions. When not immersed in art, I enjoy savoring tapas in the city center, sharing family meals, and reconnecting with friends near and far. Ultimately, I aspire to be remembered as a compassionate storyteller and illustrator who pours her heart and soul into creating captivating visuals. A cat lover at heart, I once shared my life with the lovely "Tigrilla" and may welcome another feline companion into my world in the future.
