Hi everyone, my name is Cecilia and I am an illustrator! I discovered the world of illustration a bit by chance, a bit by instinct. Three years ago I worked as a graphic designer in a communication studio. I had almost resigned myself to having to do a job that satisfied me but didn’t completely satisfy me when one day, during a lunch break, I started drawing in Illustrator and from that day I never stopped. Soon after I started posting my drawings on Instagram and I never imagined that, after a few months, this would become not only my full-time job but also my greatest passion. I found myself working as an illustrator without having planned it, but inside me it is as if I had always wanted it.
The more time passes, the more I think that method and constant practice are my greatest form of inspiration.
Thanks to these two elements I can find the idea even when inspiration is lacking. John Braine used to say “Is not that inspiration doesn’t exist, it comes only with writing. And it’s the same for me, but with drawing!
To stay on topic: “Choose a job you love and you won’t work even one day in your whole life”.
Obviously I did not write it but Confucius
