Michele Liza Pelayre
Freelance Illustrator and Character Designer
Cebu City, PhilippinesI'm a full-time freelance digital illustrator specializing in vector elements, illustrations and character design.
I'm proficient in Adobe Illustrator CS/CS4 and Adobe Photoshop CS/CS4. I use a Wacom Intuos 3 graphic tablet which allows me to give a more "hand-drawn" touch to my digital artworks.
My styles and inspiration come from my love for the kawaii, punk and goth culture, Japanese pop culture and Harajuku street style.
