Testimonials

The Oklahoma City Zoo’s program, Read for Adventure, promotes literacy while making the Zoo accessible to Oklahomans. In 2020, the Zoo produced a new book for the program, Juniper’s Butterfly Garden, which educates readers on the importance of conserving native pollinators, particularly the monarch butterfly. Nadia Ronquillo’s illustration style was a perfect fit for the project. Bold imagery and bright colors brought the story’s whimsical characters to life on every page. Nadia was able to take the initial direction for the illustrations and provide creative solutions. She was responsive and able to meet all project deadlines. If you’re looking for a professional, imaginative illustrator, Nadia will not disappoint!

I did a lot of research when it came to exploring which illustrator to use for my children's book. I scoured through many illustrators' pages, saw their style, and fell in love with Nadia's style of drawings, colors, and characters. Her work is amazing, and the liveliness of her illustrations is exactly what I was looking for for my book. In addition, Nadia was just a pleasure to work with. I feel like she really took the time to understand where I was coming from, and responded to my requests promptly and effectively. Really, I am so grateful to have worked with Nadia from beginning to end. She helped me brainstorm, select, and design the illustrations for my book, and the final product is so professional, clean, and powerful!! Thank you, Nadia!!

I worked with Nadia and her team in the creation of my children’s book Avalynn’s Royal Inheritance. The process was smooth from start to finish. Nadia made sure to answer my questions throughout the process and she went above and beyond with helping me to make my book come to life. Nadia really invests in the story, and it is obvious that she takes time to create her projects. Nadia does quality work and I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a professional illustrator for their next project.

All About Nadia: Prior to contacting Nadia about being my illustrator I perused several children’s books trying to find an artist with a great use of color and eye for detail. Nadia was an easy choice! I was impressed with everything I saw and equally impressed with the results of my book. Did have some concerns about distance and communication. This obviously was not a problem. She made it easy and provided both emails and conference calling.Am now working on my next venture and will certainly use her again. Can’t give a better recommendation than that. Anyone with additional questions can contact me accordingly.
Jim Lutz Author:No More Worms Papa!
Nadia Ronquillo has been absolutely amazing to work with. She helped me turn my dreams of publishing my first children’s book into a reality. The artwork she created from just an idea has far surpassed any expectations I had for the book. Not only is she easy to work with, but her art is beyond exceptional. If you’re ever looking for an artist, I will recommend Nadia Ronquillo every time.
Marcel DesobeauHow to be a Heavy Metal Baby
Working with Nadia is very nice. She listens to her clients and works to provide them what they need and want in their project. I enjoyed working with her and look forward to working with her again in the future.

Ms. Ronquillo and her team have been amazing from start to finish. I have been so impressed by the caliber of work that she has produced. She has been highly communicative and transparent during the whole process and work was produced with expeditiously and with every level of detail. I would recommend her to any and all my friends. I am both lucky and blessed to have met her and worked with her. She has made my dream of producing a children's book come true and has truly put together all the elements exactly as I have envisioned. Thank you again.

Nadia is absolutely amazing! She is talented, committed, and professional. The art is beautiful—better than I could have ever imagined. Nadia’s collaboration and communication during every stage of the project was excellent. Thank you so much for helping to make my dream a reality, Nadia! It really was a pleasure working with you and I hope to work on another project sometime soon! I’m thinking of book #2 already! 🙂 Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year, as well, and hope you have a great year ahead! All the best
Hila RandonoThis is my teddy bear
I had written my first children’s book, Not a drop in the Ocean, the next thing I needed to do was find the right illustrator. I searched around the internet and found the amazing Nadia Ronquillo. When I saw her illustrations on her website, I knew I wanted Nadia to help bring my book to life and she certainly did that. I already had an idea of the illustrations I wanted, and it was like Nadia read my mind. Without any further explanation, she produced the most amazing illustrations, and It was more than I hoped for. Everyone who reads my book comments on Nadia’s fantastic work. It was my first book and Nadia held my hand all the way through. Thank you, Nadia. I can’t wait to get started on the next book. If you have written a children’s book and want it brought to life, you are in the right place with Nadia in your corner.
