She’s been drawing since she was little, but she’s recently decided to pursue illustration professionally! Garza’s visual style is colorful, vibrant, and sometimes fantastical and comforting, with a semi-realistic aesthetic. She is proud to highlight Black and non-white individuals as well as the LGBTQ+ community, because growing up, Garza didn’t even know it was possible to be gay in Nicaragua. She wants to be the representation that her younger self wished she had. Commission Garza through Ko-fi, V-GEN, or directly through her DMs on Instagram!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crowne Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44474170212440,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/4146\/8760\/files\/Project_20260702032846.png?v=1783564447","url":"https:\/\/crownebooks.com\/products\/glorie-illuminating-black-literature","provider":"Crowne Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
