Saskia Bueno — Ilustrador de letras colombiano

Saskia Bueno, especialista en letras ilustradas, crea coloridos mensajes dibujados a mano con una sensación fresca y emocionante que realmente conecta con las personas. Desde publicidad hasta portadas de libros, y desde arte de redes sociales hasta tarjetas de felicitación, Saskia da vida a las comunicaciones de sus clientes de formas nuevas y únicas.

Saskia’s home city of Barranquilla, Colombia, is full of culture and colour. These surroundings give her inspiration, alongside nature’s beauty and influential lettering artists like Martina Flor, Risa Rodil, Mary Kate McDevitt and Stefan Kunz. Saskia has a degree in Graphic Design from Universidad Autónoma del Caribe in Colombia, and she grew up creating artwork guided by her grandfather, who was a painter.

Approach

When Saskia starts a commission, she focuses on making a connection with her audience. She’ll work with popular phrases that people recognise, develop a striking colour palette, select a typeface that suits the project and then hone the composition to make the right kind of impact.

Styles

Saskia combines custom crafted lettering with illustrative elements and subtle textures to create something individual for her clients. A whole range of different typographic styles will come into play – serif and sans serif, display flourishes and 3D text – often with floral highlights that add colour and bring a softer more feminine look.
