Hi! I’m Sara :-)


I’m a freelance illustrator, animator and art director based in Barcelona. I’m passionate about pixel art and retro aesthetics.

My work revolves around 2D & 3D digital media, visual arts and crafts, space, architecture, kitsch and textile.

You may ask: How is it even possible that an image moves? Can I print a GIF? Don’t worry, I have the answer to all these hard questions:

Let’s work together!

Testimonial


_Sara is incredibly creative! I highly suggest you work with her. Everyone on our team loves when we have a project with Sara  because we know she’s going to elevate it. Make sure you give her creative control and room to play!

_Puno Puno, founder of ilovecreatives, 2021


_ A joy to work with and I hope I have an opportunity to work together again. Sara shared some sketches with me and then worked quickly to illustrate the agreed upon design. Every pixel feels perfectly placed and creates a unique  illustration.

_Albert Birney, filmmaker, 2022
