Andreu Zaragoza

Based just outside Barcelona, Andreu specializes in editorial, music, fashion and advertising imagery, impressing clients with a proactive and professional approach. With a degree in graphic design and postgraduate qualifications in typography and illustration, Andreu brings over a decade of experience working in the creative industries, for major clients in local and international markets. Psychedelia and nature are two of Andreu’s favorite influences, and he loves drawing trees and plants – their vines and knotted roots often taking back the built environment. His main influences range from James Jean and Tomer Hanuka to legends like Moebius and Jack Kirkby, as well as Francisco Goya and the Ukiyo-e and Art Deco movements.

Approach

Andreu’s traditional approach is to use brushes and ink to lay down his line work and then color it using Photoshop, however today he often uses Procreate to replicate this technique which makes amends more efficient.

Key software

Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate.

Style

While his aesthetic begins with a traditional comic book look and feel, Andreu’s line work is light and contemporary. He works flexibly with clients to style his imagery to meet the brief, ensuring it is always colorful, engaging and exciting.
