Carlo Beranek is a freelance illustrator based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. His work is bold, bright and colourful, and often invested with strong messages that carry forward Carlo's belief in art's ability not only to entertain but also to educate and inspire. If Carlo weren't an illustrator he would have been a chef. He loves reading, listening to music, going to the cinema, and would jump at the chance to move to a big city like London or New York and adopt a dog.
