    Jordi Lafebre Storytelling Illustration

    I love cartooning; I’ve done it since I was a kid. I love to tell stories; Even a single image has a little story inside. The emotion in the pictures is the most essential thing, followed closely by the characters. My job is to find the characters and “catch” them for the story. I love designing a variety of new characters, from their initial simple lines and shapes to their unique expressions and body language. I work to build their background and personality, moments that intimate their history. My goal is always to show who they really are.
