Purificación Hernández (1975) was born in Barcelona, Spain, and from an early age discovered that a pencil could be much more than a tool: a magic wand capable of bringing entire worlds to life. With a degree in Fine Arts and a specialization in engraving, her passion for illustration has led her to explore diverse paths, from advertising to television, but always with a clear purpose: to connect hearts through art. Today, Purificación collaborates with some of the most renowned publishers both nationally and internationally, and her illustrations have traveled further than she ever imagined, captivating readers of all ages around the world. Her creations, which invite both children and adults to pause, breathe, and reconnect with calmness, combine delicacy and depth to highlight the beauty in everyday life. For Purificación, illustrating is much more than drawing; it’s a way of planting mindfulness, attentiveness, and small sparks of magic on every page. With every stroke, she seeks to inspire respect for life, nature, and the moments that make us truly human.
