Tania Garcia (Illustrator)
Born in Barcelona, Spain, Tania García is an illustrator and designer deeply influenced by the vibrant Mediterranean culture, the sun and the sea. She currently resides in Cape Verde, Africa, where the beauty of her surroundings continues to inspire her work. Though she initially worked in interior design, Tania soon discovered her true passion for drawing and became a self-taught illustrator. Passionate about colour, Tania constantly experiments with new palettes, bringing joy and life into her art through clean finishes and organic textures, often created with Chinese ink. Her illustrations embody a happy and fresh style, full of positivity and colour. She loves illustrating children's books and a variety of products, including home decor, stationery, tech accessories, puzzles, fabric and gifts. In 2021, Tania was a finalist in the World Illustration Awards with her debut children's book.
