Soraya BartolomeSoraya Bartolomé was born in Córdoba in the South of Spain in 1982. She grew up in a family of artists, so she learned different painting techniques very soon in her mother's painting studio. In 1990, she began studying piano at the Music Conservator of Córdoba, which would take ten years. When she finished her music studies and her studies at the Art Institute in Córdoba, she started to study a degree in musical education in the University Complutense of Madrid, and then pursued a musicology degree in the University Autónoma of Madrid. Since 2010, Soraya has been working in the field of adult education, which she combines with her musicology projects. Her interest in children's illustration has been cultivated from her infancy until today, and for this reason, in December of 2016, she decided to dedicate her time and her enthusiasm to becoming a professional children's illustrator. During this time she has worked as an illustrator on projects in the US and UK. Her illustrations are adorable, colorful, and tender, with a strong personality that is part of the sweet world of colors in Soraya's drawings. Read More Read Less
