María Perera was born in a small seaside town in northern Spain. When she was very young, she found out that there were few things in life that she enjoyed as much as listening to The Beatles and drawing. She graduated with a degree in art history, then studied graphic design. She has worked as a freelance illustrator for several international publishers, magazines and advertising agencies and loves to work on portraits and children's books. She is very inspired by 60's -70's music, literature and cinema and loves to spend time with her family and friends. She still listens to The Beatles and feels fortunate to be able to do what she loves the most for a living, illustration.
