All about YOU


You made it to the weekend, my friends!

May I suggest some crafting, stitching, drawing or painting this weekend to de-stress? Or curl up with a beloved back issue of UPPERCASE or a copy of Notions.

All about YOU reader submissions

Rayane Alvim,
Lettering Artist

I’m a lettering artist and illustrator based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I began my career as a graphic designer in the startup world but quickly realized I wanted to be a full-time lettering artist. I’m passionate about creating unique pieces of artwork on topics I care about such as women’s rights and empowerment, pop culture (books, movies, music), and more. My work typically combines hand lettering and illustration elements with colorful palettes. Instagram / Website

Introvert Tarot Card Series
by Aurelia Karina

I am Karina, a Graphic Designer based in Jakarta with years of experience. Drawing has been my childhood hobby and now I have developed a passion for elevating it to a new level. Currently, I am planning to shift my career to become a full-time Illustrator. I have participated in various local and international competitions and exhibitions such as Unknown Asia, Authenticity ID, Bharatika Creative Design Fest, Sinestesia 6 International Exhibition, and Weecanfest. I was selected as HUG Visionary in January 2024 and later featured as one of the artists for HUG 100 Artists to Watch publication. In the early days, I used traditional tools like drawing pens and markers. However, after I got my first iPad, I had the opportunity to expand into digital illustration. My artwork revolves around vibrant, cute, grainy, and imaginative depictions of disproportionately styled human characters. Instagram / Portfolio

Hello. My name is Christy and I live by the sea with my family. I’m a tea-sipping, laughter-seeking, comfy-clothes-wearing lady who cherishes all things whimsical. I feel very fortunate to work as a children's librarian in a little library on Cape Cod. In my spare time, I illustrate pictures, eat sweets, and collect tiny things. Instagram / Website
