Illustrator and Designer

Cristóbal Ojeda was born in Chile and became fascinated with illustration at a young age, a hobby that gradually transformed into his career. He studied design because it was the closest profession to drawing, but that certainly didn't mean he was leaving his passion for illustration by the wayside. In fact, he combines his knowledge of both fields in his professional work.

With more than ten years of experience in design and nearly a lifetime's worth in illustration, he has collaborated with major brands like Nike, Chevrolet, and Lollapalooza Chile, as well as other smaller brands around the world.
