Currently, I'm updating my portfolio as I'm exploring a shift in my illustration style. For this reason, the link to my portfolio has temporarily changed to: mspaoglz9.wixsite.com/my-site. Thank you for your understanding as I work through this new stage!

Testing out some new character designs. Still in the sketch phase, but I can already see it coming to life. What do you think so far? 🔍 #CharacterDesign #Sketching

Even without knowing what my illustrations might need to catch an agency's or client's attention, the rejections keep coming. What do you think? Any advice on how to improve and make it happen?🤔

✨🖤 My take on the #DTYIS for #EscolaDeBruxinhas! 🖤✨ Here’s my interpretation of this charming little witch and her magical cat. Had so much fun working on the details for both characters! 🌙🐈‍⬛✨ #WitchyArt #IllustrationArtists #FantasyIllustration #MexicanArtist #HalloweenArt #SpookySeason #DigitalArt

We’re considering going ahead with a picture book pitch event in a few weeks, on Wednesday 10/23 - I hope everyone can craft a good pitch by then! More info at boringstorybook.com/skypitch #skypitch #kidlit #picturebooks

Kidlit Illustrators, you don’t need a huge social following. I hire illustrators who don’t have huge followings all the time. You just need strong work. If you’re trying to decide between spending time practicing or posting, I’d recommend practicing. 💙❤️

Another agencies rejection, who's counting anymore? At least I can say I'm an expert now! Still on the hunt for an agency and work as an illustrator, because giving up isn't on the menu. Plus, matcha isn't going to pay for itself!💚🍵
