Hello Legends,
My name is Pilar and I love drawing. I am an illustrator, artist and designer working on Gadigal land in sunny Sydney.
I draw for branding, I draw for packaging, I draw for people who would love to have an illustration of an Ibis stuck in a garbage can in their home, and I draw for everything in between. From boutique bakery packaging in NYC to bespoke wine labels and FMCG for brands like Hersheys and PNG, I’ve done it and I've dug it. Gouache and pigment markers are my tools of choice for any traditional illustration, whilst a crafty entanglement of Procreate, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop are my digital go-tos.
Whether it be a classic Aussie bush scene, the smallest of bugs, a delicious home-style Filipino meal or magpies driving a rally car, I believe that we can find beauty in everything that surrounds us, and that just a calm moment or a tickle of hilarity is the key to enjoying this whole heartedly.
