Hi, I'm Celeste!  I am a Ph.D. biologist and self-taught illustrator and designer, passionate about nature and art. I love drawing animals, flowers and cute characters that can help promote the knowledge of our vast biodiversity.
​


 I was born and raised in Argentina, the most Southern country in our world. I lived in a city my whole life until I moved to a tiny town in Virginia. I feel that, as a city kid, I had fewer opportunities to know and explore the fauna and flora surrounding me.


I get my inspiration from the beauty and admiration I feel for the natural world. I like to use delicate color palettes in playful illustrations of the lovely creatures of our planet and imagine little stories or scenarios for them.


I believe that art is a vital part of how children 
perceive the world and connect with nature. I would like my artwork to bridge them to their surroundings and awaken their curiosity, admiration and imagination.
​
When I am not drawing, you can find me hiking with my husband and friends or exploring new baking recipes! 

If you are a fellow creative or a company that wants to work with me, you can contact me at [email protected]

I would love to hear from you!

DO YOU KNOW I AM ALSO A MAKER?

​I think that before being an artist I was a crafter. I have always enjoyed making things from scratch. My handmade creations include art journals with different bookbinding styles, stickers, notepads and eco friendly fabric toys. 


I like to share quick tutorials and templates that you can make at home in my monthly newsletter. I truly believe that anyone can learn new skills and have a joyful moment crafting.
