Guillermina, also known as Guille Pistache is a nature illustrator. She is originally from Mexico City and through her illustrations inspired by 18th-century naturalist prints, she seeks to put nature as the main character in her work.
She started making these types of illustrations in early 2017 as part of an extracurricular subject in her design and visual communication studies. "If I think about it, I'm surprised I didn't start illustrating nature earlier. For as long as I can remember I've loved documentaries that talk about animals and the environment, and as a child, I had a large collection of illustrated encyclopedias that fascinated me."
Since her childhood, Guille considers Nature as something of great value. "Since I was a child I was taught that we have to love it, respect it and protect it as part of our family. This is a thought that is part of the pillars of my life and that I try to reflect in my day to day life."
