Vanessa Flores is an illustrator, author-in-progress, and recovering creative burnout raised on plátanos and old-school salsa.

Her passion for drawing began at the tender age of 3, when she reached the height of her artistic abilities by drawing her family as sausage-limbed characters on her portable chalkboard. Summers in Puerto Rico fueled her love for mountains and magic. Gardens, dancing, Studio Ghibli movies, and ghost stories are also a few of her favorite things. She loves illustrating humor, magic realism, and repping her DominiRican culture through the art of storytelling.

Clients include:
