" I wouldn't trade my life as an artist for anything. Being able to see the world through my creative lens is everything to me."

Kylee Conriquez is an illustrator and mixed media artist who studied studio art with a concentration in painting and illustration at Humboldt State University. She is from Fresno, California where she worked as a wildlife technician, helping conserve the habitat of sensitive species. It was there where she fostered a love for creating whimsical illustrations that draw inspiration from nature. Through her work, Kylee hopes to engage the younger generation with their natural surroundings, and inspire their innate ability to create. Kylee has created illustrations for children’s books, animations, newspapers, literary magazines, and portraiture work. She also designed two of the books that she illustrated.
Kylee is fun to work with and can bring a feeling of magic and childlike wonder to your project. She responds promptly and would love to work with you! Illustration for: books, toys/games, licensing. With limited space, she is also accepting custom commissions.
