Illustrator and character designer
Hi my name is Daniel
Professional Profile
​​
Trained illustrator and Character Designer with a Professional Degree in Illustration and Character Design and a minor in Animation from the Alberta University of the Arts.
My work blends expressive storytelling with strong foundations in color, composition, and visual clarity.
I specialize in stylized character design, apparel graphics, poster illustration, and large-scale mural creation. With proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign), Procreate, and animation tools like Procreate Dreams, I bring concepts to life across both digital and physical formats.
My approach balances creativity and precision—whether I’m designing a character lineup, developing a bold editorial poster, or painting a public-facing mural. I work comfortably across teams or independently, and bring strong communication and problem-solving to every project.
About Me
Hi, I’m Daniel—a Colombian illustrator and character designer based between Canada and South America. I hold a degree in Illustration and Character Design with a minor in Animation from the Alberta University of the Arts.
I’m passionate about creating bold, story-driven visuals that connect with people. My work is rooted in expressive character design, editorial illustration, and mural art—always with a focus on energy, emotion, and clarity.
As a bilingual creative fluent in both English and Spanish, I value collaboration, cultural perspective, and communication in every project. Whether I’m sketching in Procreate, painting a wall, or designing apparel graphics, I approach each piece with curiosity, care, and intent.
When I’m not working on commissions or portfolio pieces, you can usually find me sketching ideas, reading, or experimenting with new visual styles. I'm always looking for opportunities to grow, connect, and push my work forward.
