Branding, Illustration, Advertising
Welcome! I'm Amber Raquel a Portland-based graphic designer with a passion for creating bold, eye-catching visuals. Drawing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I love weaving original illustrations into my designs.
My work is versatile, spanning various styles, but I have a strong affinity for vintage aesthetics, vibrant colors, and designs that truly pop.
Whether crafting a unique brand identity or adapting to a specific creative vision, I thrive in any design challenge with flexibility and collaboration at the core of my process.
