Azul López
Azul López (formerly Andrés López) is an author and illustrator of picture books. Her books have been published in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, Italy, France, Spain, South Korea, the Netherlands, the United States, Germany, Greece and Sweden. Her stories and illustrations have received several international awards, the most recent being the International Award for Illustration Bologna Children’s Book Fair and Fundación SM and the Green Island Prize awarded by the Nami Island International Picture Book Illustration Concours in South Korea.
Azul uses emotions, memories and metaphors as raw material to tell the stories she imagines. When she is not in her studio working on her next books, she enjoys walking, looking for flowers in the grass and spending time looking at the sky, observing how it is enough to pay a little attention to witness and be part of how wonderful it is to see how things change.
