hey! i’m kessy sambou <3
[KEH-see sam-BOO]
I’m a graphic designer and illustrator based in Los Angeles, CA. I received my Illustration BFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2024.
Sketching by hand and working primarily in Procreate and Adobe Illustrator, I like to play with bold colors, flowing lines, and funky shapes.
I’m interested in the joys and wonders of the collective human spirit. Emerging from a multicultural childhood home, I’m inspired by nature, domestic life, and community. I aim to inspire young audiences to live well, be curious, and value togetherness.
When I'm not sketching or painting you may find me crocheting, rollerskating, or watching reality TV with my senior chihuahua mix, Peanut.
I’m currently working as an Associate Packaging Designer at Mattel, Inc.
