Art is transformed into entertainment with live event artist Andrea Del Hoyo, whose passion for fashion illustration comes to life with each guest she captures on the page. Based in Orange County, California, Andrea brings her talents to fashion brands, private events, brand activations, weddings and more.
Originally from Mexico, Andrea has a degree in fashion and textile design, and through this has developed a skill for quickly capturing people, their personalities and garments with beauty, flare and a unique sense of style. Guests receive a premium, customised experience that brings them closer to the brand hosting the event, while the artwork becomes a fantastic talking point, both in real life and on social media, generating a buzz behind the brand.
“Some enjoy watching me as I draw, while others prefer to wait and be surprised by the final result. Illustrating people at an event is a unique way to capture the memory of that moment, highlighting an outfit, an accessory and the essence of the person through the artist's perspective,” says Andrea.
Approach
Andrea works in a variety of media, including watercolour, ink, pencil and marker. Clients can choose the media they prefer and what to emphasise in the imagery, and Andrea will adapt her approach to suit the client and the event.Style
With years of figurative drawing experience behind her, Andrea captures the human form expressively, using bold lines in an edgy, contemporary style. Along with excellent anatomical skills, she’s always on point with how fabrics join with the contours of our bodies, which is the essence of fashion illustration.Languages
