is a first generation Trinidadian American illustrator with a passion for narratives and stories. Born in New York and raised in Baltimore Camilla graduated from Maryland Institute College of Art with her BFA in Illustration.
Narrative illustration and World-building is Camilla’s specialty. She loves developing new worlds and designing for stories where possibilities are endless. Representation in the media is something Camilla has long been passionate about and her work reflects her dedication to telling inclusive stories.
She is currently experimenting with sewing (she made the dress she’s wearing) and has a part time job as a floral designer! Currently, she’s watching Interview with the Vampire!
Experience
Camilla has so far illustrated for magazines, the New Yorker website, book covers, picture books and more! She is currently working her debut Graphic Novel and developing her on story pitch!
Until recently she’s worked mainly for UK publishers, however, her debut US picture book is slated to publish soon! Titled: Space for Everyone!
Her published work so far has been full of warm stories about families connecting through culture and history, however she’d love to branch out and illustrate more fantasy stories for older audiences.
