Harbouring a passion for illustration, Soledad began spending more time honing her craft, and finally received the recognition she’d always dreamed of when she was selected to illustrate a regular column for ELLE magazine. Her cute illustrations, often featuring a young woman, won the hearts of ELLE readers. Her simple yet clean strokes, combined with vibrant colours, bring each character she draws to life.
