A course by PENCIL·ILUSTRADORES
Founded in 2000, Pencil is the first illustrator agency in Spain. They represent artists from various countries who have received the most prestigious awards and been recognized in international competitions in the sector, with works published in magazines, newspapers, and agencies in Europe, America, and Asia. Their portfolio includes diverse styles to suit the needs of all types of clients. Rather than being guided by trends, their only requirement is to instill excitement.
They have a history of promoting and organizing international cultural projects, such as the Guadalajara-Mexico FIL International Illustration Forum (FILustra); Ilumina, a reading promotion program; and LuchaLibro Valladolid, a contest of literary improvisation in the boxing ring. They also collaborate with the Programa Acerca, part of the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID), and the International and Ibero-American Foundation for Administration and Public Policies (FIIAPP), leading workshops in cultural centers in Spain and institutions in Chile, Honduras, Mali, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Peru.
