Hello there! My name is Alejandra Ruiz. I'm an illustrator and visual story teller based in Bogotá, Colombia. My work celebrates day-to-day moments, emotions, details, and everything that you have to do with animals and feeling peaceful. I also adore illustrating elements of Colombian culture, since I truly believe we have a lot to tell and a lot to show, as well!
