Through eclectic illustrations, I celebrate the wonderful side of life, the magical side of nature, and the small pleasures of the quotidian. With thoughtful details, I construct lavish atmospheres, finding balance in my choice of colours and creating movement through composition. Primarily, I work digitally, building upon the look and feel of acrylic paint (my previously preferred medium).
I’ve worked with Anthropologie, Breathe Magazine, AAAS Science Magazine, GMC Books, East-West Publishing, High Jinks Ranch, Sisyphos Nightclub and others.
I have a BA in Graphic Design from Iberoamericana University, Mexico City (2014) and an MA in Fine Art from Kingston University, London (2016.)
It would be great to hear from you for inquiries, collaborations, licensing, or to say hi! You can find me here: studio@alejandra-penaloza.com
When not working, I enjoy good food, watch movies, and take long walks with my dog through gardens and riversides around Berlin.
