Fionna Fernandes - International lifestyle and fashion illustrator. Sydney

Social Reach Instagram: 23K Fionna Fernandes is a Sydney-based illustrator who enjoys drawing a variety of subject matter: portraits, stickers, landscapes, lifestyle and animals for clients in fashion, editorial, advertising and more. Everything she creates has a touch of fun to it as she selects key details to highlight in a rainbow of colour, adding in patterns as a flourish that give her work its highly individual visual language.
Taking inspiration from Lisa Frank, Super Mario and My Little Pony, you know you’re in for a colourful ride with the young Australian artist. The 90s, Japanese culture, and the artists Laura Callaghan, Hattie Stewart and Georgia Perry are just some of her influences. Fionna has a Bachelor degree in Design in Visual Communication from the University of Technology in Sydney. All the elective courses she took were focused on illustration.

Approach

Fionna’s work combines hand-drawn line work and acrylic paints with digital colouring for the best of both worlds. She often creates collaged backdrops, adding stickers to the compositions to enhance that mixed media feel.

Style

Playful, fun and energetic, Fionna generates a youthful aesthetic. She enjoys drawing attention to certain aspects of the female face – the eyes, lips and hair – using brighter colours and patterns. This gives her portraits their unique feel and some extra impact.

Client list

Some of Fionna’s clients include Netflix, Google, Nickelodeon, Avon, Toyota, Fanta, LEGO, Chupa Chups, Kiko Milano, Glamour UK, My Little Pony, Ad Age, Scholastic, Harlequin and Peter Alexander.

Fionna is great to work with. She delivered a final image that exceeded our expectations on a tricky project. She was hard working and carried out all amends to our exacting standards quickly and efficiently. Really fantastic illustrations and a dream to work with.
Claire Clifton Coles: Picture Director, Glamour Magazine UK
I have admired Fionna's beautiful illustrations for a while now, and was very excited when she agreed to do an illustration of me for my therapy website. Fionna and her agent, Alice, were extremely friendly and easy to deal with, both communicating with me very clearly and quickly. Fionna seemed able to put things together faster than I expected, but always with great care and attention to detail - she clearly wanted to make sure that she understood exactly what I was looking for in the final design, and she was very obliging in making sure I had the files in the requested formats. I am very happy with the final result and look forward to commissioning further illustrations in the future.

It was an excellent experience working with Fionna. She was very professional, and the work was top quality and exceeded our expectations, also it was delivered early! As a commissioner, I can not ask for a better experience.
Paul Blachford: Art Editor, MacFormat
It was a delight to work with Fionna on a series of illustrations for a client. Her collaborative and responsive approach ensured that our client was thrilled with the finished product, and her artwork looked amazing of course. We look forward to working with her again in the future.
Vincent Varney, 1000heads
I recently worked with Fionna for the first time and it was a great experience. She is very professional and quick to turn around multiple sketches and in the end an amazing final piece. Her job was to bring some pop and fun to what would have been a typical photo solution to an opener for a story about environmentalist Rachel Carson. I would recommend working with Fionna and look forward to working with her again.
Albert Amigo: Senior Art Director, Scholastic Inc. Classroom Magazines
Working with Fionna was an absolute joy. She is very communicative and professional, and the final illustrations were fun, bright and exactly what I was looking for. Will definitely work with her again!
Kelly Roberts: Art Director, Junior Scholastic
Fionna was an absolute pleasure to work with: from the start she understood the brief and through each revision added her own personal style to the project, elevating it. Very good communication despite being on the opposite side of the world and her detailed-oriented approach is refreshing: it meant all issues were either brought up beforehand and discussed during briefing stage or immediately dealt without causing delays.
Anna Taschini: Creative Supervisor, Poke House
Working with Fionna was a dream. Even though she was on the other side of the world (I'm in DC and she is in Australia) she was super responsive to emails and quick on edits. I love her playfulness with color and pattern - it was exactly what I was looking for.
Erin Douglas: Art Director, Women’s Running
Fionna was a pleasure to collaborate with. She was professional, on-time and stuck to the brief all while adding her own creative touch. Her work is vibrant, fun and youthful. I would love to work with her again in the future.
Tara Scarcello, Harlequin
Working with Fionna was a pleasure! She has a fun, fresh style and was super easy to work with. She gave us exactly what we were looking for!
Jennifer Lew, Creative Director, PAPYRUS
It was a pleasure to work with Fionna. She was very good at communication and made sure to check with me every step of the way. The artwork is absolutely gorgeous and I'd love to work with her again in the future. Thank you!!

It was a pleasure to work with Fionna. She was quick to respond to our requests and to turn around our notes. She transformed our talent into awesome illustrations and the addition of her art to our design elevated our key art to another level.
