Hi!
I am an illustrator from Mataró, a Mediterranean city near Barcelona.
I graduated from the Children’s Book Illustration MA at Cambridge School of Art in 2020.
I love everything about illustration and storytelling. From picturebooks to comics. I enjoy experimenting with traditional and digital art - considering several techniques to find the one that matches the story.

I’m represented outside Spain by Pickled Ink. Please contact Amy Kitcherside for inquiries at amy@pickledink.com If you want to work with me or just want to say hi, you can contact me at sonalbert@gmail.com or here
I speak Catalan, Spanish, English, a bit of French and I’m learning German :)
