My name is Careshia Esperanza and I am an artist living in Cape Town, SA. My work ranges from painting, digital illustration and sculptures. Sense of humour and playfulness is what I aim for.
We should be able to play while making art.I thrive on mixing things up, working with everything from acrylics, oil sticks, koki and ink. My work brings together human forms, often a bit disjointed and warped, with an eclectic cast of creatures and monsters.

"Working with Careshia was a pleasure from beginning to end. She fully understood our brief and what we were looking for and brought even more than we asked for to the table. We worked fluidly and quickly as we developed the initial direction and refined it as we went on. The whole process was a joy, and our whole team is in love with the work. Would definitely call on Careshia for future work in a heartbeat."

"I had the privilege of collaborating with Careshia, an exceptional illustrator, for a recent campaign, and I am extremely pleased with the remarkable outcome. Careshia's creative work was truly outstanding, particularly her exceptional use of color.
Despite working remotely, she maintained excellent communication and responded promptly. Careshia demonstrated a deep understanding of the brief and delivered the final product on time. Working with her was a seamless and enjoyable experience, and I highly recommend her services."
