Hello, I'm Lou
I am a Budapest-based freelance illustrator specialising in editorial and advertising projects, as well as tour posters and merch designs. My work incorporates conceptual, often witty ideas with a bold, colourful style. I enjoy working on topics such as mental health, sex and relationship, women's rights, and opinion pieces.
My passion in life — other than drawing, is music. I can often be found at concerts, either in the audience as a fan, or working as a concert photographer. When I’m not doing any of the above, I like to spend my free time with traveling and exploring new countries, taking care of my plants, or getting lost in a book.
