about pilar

Pilar's clients say she's a superstar with good reason. Her sense of humor from working as a kids art teacher for 10 years, coupled with over a decade of graphic design experience blend together to inspire her edgy, cute, and whimsical illustration style.

Her versatility as a designer has scored her clients that range from Fortune 500 companies to small local businesses. While she is comfortable creating work in a variety of styles, she has a special affinity for the youth market. In 2005, she founded PUFFY P, where she licenses her artwork and character brands worldwide for the teen and tween market. Currently her work can be seen on stationery, stickers, and mobile phone wallpapers.

Her design work has won several awards including kudos from Encyclopedia Britannica, Macromedia: Shockwave Site of the Day, Surfmonkey.com: Star Site Award, Educating.net: Top Site Award, Electric Schoolhouse: Seal of Approval , USA Today Education: Best Bet Website , Yahooligans!: Cool Site of the Week , Yahoo! : Daily Pick (in several countries), and Yahoo! internet life: 100 best sites for 2001.

She is inspired by teen pop culture, monster trucks, and all things David Hasselhoff.
