Cristina Dekle

Children's book illustrator Cristina Dekle

My name is Cristina. I was born and raised in Costa Rica and moved to the United States many years ago. 

I studied graphic design and education. I am a bilingual teacher who re-discovered her love for writing and illustrating children’s books while in the classroom, where children have become some of the characters I’ve designed. I love being with children because they can teach you things that we, adults, might have forgotten. 

As a digital artist, I keep myself motivated by learning and exploring new techniques, brushes, and textures that help me improve without even noticing it because I always have a lot of fun when drawing. 

My inspiration comes from children and nature. I’m always observing! 

I like to think that every illustration I make tells a story: the characters are colorful, unique, and show their personalities and emotions.
