Esther Burgueño

When she was a girl her favorite things in the whole wide world were a pencil and a blank sheet of paper. She had heard that in some remote place there existed people whose professions consisted in drawing. If that was true, she wanted to be just like them!

As she grew up, her dream was still there, as strong as ever, so she studied Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona, and majored in engraving and stamping.

In 2009 she won the VI Lola Anglada Illustration Award for « Els contes d’Ukanaburu ». Some years later, she illustrated “Moss”, a novel that won the XXI Children’s Literature Ward of Edebé.

Her passion has become her profession and a way of living that she adores, so let’s say that she is one of those strange beings that loves her work and enjoys doing it.
