Tabling with Neighborhood Comics during my Art Residency in Savannah, GA. December 2021
Hello! I’m Rodrigo Reyes Rico, a Mexican comic book artist and illustrator based in Mexico City with a love for storytelling. I worked as a graphic designer and animator. In the US, I collaborated with fellow artists and writers on El Mañana Anthology published by Power & Magic Press, and on the Blondie Anthology published by Z2 Cool Comics. I am currently working on my first middle grade graphic novel published by Lerner Publishing Group.
I am represented by Britt Siess from Britt Siess Creative Management.
