Testimonials

“The illustrations of Lalalimola are alive; her characters, sometimes defined with just two lines, move through the page with the tranquility of living in their own world, in movement and even when we stop looking at them. Her work is detailed, her colors are fun, her style invites the reader to play … and she is very rigorous with the deadlines!

It’s a pleasure to work with her and her drawings never cease to amaze me.”

Diego Areso
Art Director at El País

“Sandra is a true collaborator, equipped with a rich and diverse creative background. Sandra not only understands our ideas, concepts and themes, but greatly improves on them. From thoughtful and sensitive, to witty and humorous — Sandra’s work runs the gamut; notably with a refined flair and craft at the heart. All of this makes Sandra a delight to work with, underpinned by her fantastic attention to detail and always cordial, calm and considered communication.”

Chris Clarke
Creative Director at The Guardian

“Sandra’s illustrations are the perfect combination of wit and style. Her clever illustrations have an energy to them which engage with our readers. She’s quick to respond and always meets deadlines.

An absolute pleasure to work with!”
