Designer and Illustrator

Alfredo Rios, better known as El Profe, is a designer and illustrator with more than ten years' experience. He has participated in a variety of illustration projects in varying degrees of complexity, from geometric illustrations with basic figures, to more complex composition and graphic illustrations.

He is currently an illustrator at Pictoline, where he has learned how to produce complete, high-quality illustrations in very little time. This process has taught him how to optimize basic tools while always pursuing the best results.

In 2020, he teamed up with Maga Rey and cofounded "Wild Fontana," a brand where they experiment with illustration and its application on textiles to create decorative pieces for the home.
