Danae Cendejas is an illustrator and graphic designer that hails from Orange County. Currently, she is pursuing her bachelor of arts in the area of illustrationand graphic design at the Laguna College of Art and Design, and is on track to graduate in the spring of 2009. Her current GPA is a 3.7.

Hoping someday to write, illustrate, and publish a series of books for kids, she currently occupies herself with school projects, personal art projects, the occasional work out, tree-climbing, hill-sliding, coffee-making and barrista
bopping, night-driving extravaganzas. Oh... and of course, being with her friends. Always ready for the next project or adventure to come her way, Danae is continually optimistic for whatever lies in front of her.

Illustrations: Drawing from her own 'child at heart' and that crazy creative voice inside her own head, Danae uses a variety of different mediums to reach her final product. Ranging from children's illustrations to detailed renderings and almost everything inbetween, Danae also enjoys creating a variety of different artistic styles.

Graphic Design: Approaching her design with a sophisticated yet playful approach, Danae enjoys the feel of a stylus pen almost as much as a paintbrush. With a range of vector graphics to digital painting, the computer is her favorite way to experiment on a range of different ideas, whether it be from the initial sketch, to the output of a t-shirt graphic.

Photography: Originally starting as a mere hobby, photography has quickly turned into another one of Danae's true passions. Drawing much inspiration from her hometown, her friends, and the places she's traveled. Danae's photography aims to capture the beauty in the objects and the world around her.
