She developed an interest in drawing at a very young age and, as a child, spent much of her free time painting and creating characters. As a teenager, Paula studied Fine Arts at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, and it was here that she discovered her passion for illustration. Since then, she has worked on many illustration projects such as illustrated books, comics and board games. She loves telling stories through her art and bringing fictional characters to life. Her favorite part of the illustration process is creating magical worlds that are entirely different from our own.
