Happy #kidlitartpostcard day!
My name is Cristina de Lera and I'm a product and children's book illustrator.

I refuse to give AI the ✨ emoji.

It’s already coming for my livelihood. It can’t have my favorite emoji.

Please be advised that I will continue to use ✨ to mean *ooooh it’s magic* or *the emoji that came before this one is now shiny and special*.

I'm a product and children's book illustrator available for work starting mid-April, so here is a portrait of future me working happily during Spring at my desk ✨👩🏻‍🎨🤭✨

This is so charming 😊

It's lovely!! 🥰

I love the motifs on this one: www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

Looking up for reference images of Greek vases.
These are Ancient Greek amphorae from the Met collection.

Their collection is searchable online 💖 www.metmuseum.org/art/collection

They're lovely!! :)
I have that same mouse, it's the best 😍

This year for my Valentine's day post I thought using some of my pink and red color pencils to create a floral composition.

After scanning the hand drawn pieces and assembling them in Photoshop, here's the final result. I hope it makes you smile 🤗🥰

Happy Valentine's day 💌

Oh, thank you so much!
