Episode #5: Salvadorian & Mexican-American Illustrator Iliana Galvez
In this episode, I chat with Mexican & Salvadorian American illustrator Iliana Galvez. Iliana is a Latinx illustrator born and raised in the San Fernando Valley who creates bright, bold, and unapologetic art celebrating people of all sizes. Her work is extremely empowering and unapologetic and she really creates work that uplifts black and brown femmes. Keep on listening to hear us chat about Iliana's complicated family dynamic, how she decided to quit her career as a nurse aide to be an artist, struggling with imposter syndrome, and her routine to stay creative, especially during the winter season.
Episode #1: Salvadorian Illustrator & Tattoo Artist So Lazo
In this episode, I chat with Salvadoran illustrator So Lazo. So is an Illustrator and tattoo artist from tiny tropical El Salvador who immigrated to Berlin, Germany in 2021. They're also the author of 2 illustrated books and have their own brand of illustrated products on Etsy since 2016. I'm really excited to have So on the show, so keep on listening to hear us talk about their experience moving to Berlin, their advice for finding your voice, and running an Etsy shop using drop shipping.
