Hey there! I'm Marcela Calderón, an Argentine illustrator deeply connected to nature and the beauty it holds. With over 35 years of experience specializing in children's book illustrations, my art has evolved from whimsical animal drawings to intricate botanical designs, blending traditional analog techniques with my unique digital style. I believe in the power of art to convey stories and emotions, working closely with editors to bring books to life visually.

Being recognized as a finalist at the Bologna Book Fair and having my work featured in the prestigious White Raven list showcase the dedication and creativity I pour into each project. I take pride in building strong relationships with clients, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable collaboration while maintaining top-notch quality in every illustration. My ability to create endearing characters and captivating atmospheres has earned me accolades and opportunities to exhibit my work at local galleries.

Nature serves as my ultimate muse, inspiring me alongside influential artists, my family, and beloved pets. Drawing inspiration from the simplicity of everyday life, I infuse my illustrations with warmth and depth. Always striving to grow both professionally and personally, I aspire to be remembered as someone who spreads positivity and continuous improvement, all while sipping mate and enjoying the simple pleasures of life.
