Ludi Leiva illustration



About
Ludi’s illustration and animation processes blend analog and digital techniques, incorporating elements from her painting and printmaking practices. Filled with textured strokes and tiny imperfections, her work evokes feelings of aliveness and connection. 

Over the last several years, Ludi has collaborated on impactful, purpose-driven illustration campaigns with clients around the world. She is currently open to commissions and collaborations. Please reach out to discuss project ideas!
