About Me

Hello! 

My name is Sofia Mallo and I’m an Argentinian illustrator based in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. 

I studied graphic design and have been working as an illustrator for a little over nine years; conveying concepts and solving problems for a variety of clients. Focused on detail and impulsed by curiosity I am always looking to experiment with different art styles. I work with both digital and traditional media to tell stories inspired by nature, fantasy and everyday life.

If you’d like to collaborate with me, or have a very good joke you’d like to tell, drop an email at contact@sofiamallo.com and say hi!

Clients and collaborators' kind words

    Mauricio Mujaes

    General Manager of Rock and Roll Ad Agency

    “As an agency, we had the opportunity to work with Sofía on a realistic illustration project of endangered animal species and illustrations of characters and settings for a video game. She is a very organized and responsible professional, as well as proactive, and her illustrations are of high technical quality.”

      Sangeetha Narayan

      Chief Product Officer at Lemu

      “Sofia is an incredibly talented illustrator and artist, with an impressive balance of creativity and organization that makes her a pleasure to work with. The library of illustrations and the icon library she created for Lemu are a key part of our visual language and add whimsy and relatability to scientific and technical content. Sofia is also flexible and a quick learner, adapting to changing needs at a startup and delivering excellent work. She has great work ethic, and that makes her proactive and always willing to help the team in tasks that went beyond her core role. Her bilingual, international background gives her an extra edge in her work. Above all, Sofi is kind, funny, full of stories and absolute fun to work with! I highly recommend Sofia for both freelance and full-time work, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.”

        Shannon O'Brien

        Founder & CEO at Minerva Consultores Académicos

        “Sofía is a consummate professional who works incredibly well under pressure. Her remote work for Minerva Consultores was creative, precise and punctual. She worked remotely for us and was always available for revisions or even extra last minute projects. Being bilingual Sofia was able to talk with varios members of our team and incorporate different cultural aspects into illustrations and graphic designs. I would recommend Sofia highly and would definitely use her services in the future. She combines incredible talent with practical experience and communicates effectively with all team members.”

          Blanca Arteaga

          Creative Director at Arandu Ad Agency

          “I had the pleasure of working with Sofia recently and I was pleasantly surprised to find a very responsible and, above all, talented professional. A great team player when it comes to tackling projects, she is always attentive to the details that make her work of high quality. Standing out in the area of illustration with a defined style, but if you ask her for variety, she will deliver greatly. She is a person who stands out both in her work and in her human quality, characteristics that I think are very important when looking to incorporate a new colleague.”
