About me

Diana Garcia is a graphic designer and artist living in London. She obtained a first class BA in Graphic Design at Southampton Solent University and is currently completing courses at the Prince's Drawing School. She has five years experience of graphic design, illustration and photography in a variety of sectors including private/corporate, public events, festivals, youth work and community arts. With a strong and varied work history (employed, voluntary and freelance), Diana is able to work in a mix of environments from small community settings to multi-disciplined fast paced studios.

Diana is passionate about the power of visual communication, especially illustration and animation. She keeps up to date with new technologies which she combines with traditional art and illustration styles. She is active in developing socially conscious graphic design and regularly leads a range of art activities for children and young people.

With a passion for life, people and all things creative, Diana is a dreamer, who believes that art and design can be a powerful social tool to transcend a variety of backgrounds and social barriers.
