About

Hey, I'm Felipe! For the last 15+ years, I’ve been designing expressive, story-driven characters and illustrations for games, toys, and publishing. I love blending clean stylization, bold shapes, and vibrant colors to create art with a sense of playful storytelling. Over my career, I've partnered with global studios to bring their worlds to life, always taking pride in being a reliable and collaborative part of the team.

But I'm not always at my drawing desk! When I'm not sketching crazy characters, you'll probably find me out in the wild chasing wildlife with my camera or backpacking through the mountains.

Let's talk!
