Farewell to Willian Santiago, Illustrator of Vibrant Colors and Infinite Talent, via @Domestika domestika.org/en/blog/7700-f…

“We remember the life and work of the Brazilian illustrator and teacher, who died at the age of 30”

“His strong artistic instincts are expressed through the work that he made, characterized by the combination of simple shapes and vibrant, uniquely Brazilian colors.”

“Willian was primarily a digital artist, but he gave his work an artisanal and analog touch by digitizing old papers or mark making with chalk and splashed of ink.”

“Willian’s success never prevented him from remaining humble and generous when it came to sharing his knowledge with other young illustrators, or from giving credit to those artists who influenced his work.”

“Willian always loved drawing, but it was only through the power of the Internet that he was able to establish himself as a professional illustrator and begin to have his work published in France, South Africa, Italy, the United States, and South Korea, among other countries”
