Hi! Hola! My name is Luisa Leal.
I’m a Venezuelan-American illustrator & designer based in Las Vegas. Drawing and creating were my forms of expression from a very young age. I create art that evokes happiness and beauty, mixing history, adventures, and personal experiences. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Graphic Design and combined my technical skills with my passion for illustration to become a full-time artist.
