Susie Hammer is a Polish illustrator and graphic designer based in Madrid. Susie uses simple shapes and vivid colours to create a playful, happy, imaginary world. She loves drawing and painting and mixing techniques to create something different with each project. Although she works mostly digitally, her hands are frequently stained with all the colours of the rainbow.

When she is not daydreaming about dogs driving cars, Susie can be found teaching art workshops for children.
