Hello!
I'm Patricia Claro
and I'm a Filipino Canadian Freelance Illustrator and Educator based in Ottawa. I am a graduate of Seneca Polytechnic with an honours diploma in Illustration, and has a background in Interior Design, as well as Layout for Animation.
I love creating character designs and building 3D architectural pieces.
My works are heavily influenced by people of colour, culture, history, animals, and the environment. I am highly adaptable, with works ranging from cute children's book illustrations, vector graphics, to stylized conceptual art.

Besides making art, I have a knack for reading, online gaming, blogging and going on food-trips.
