Ruby Fontyn

I'm Ruby Fontyn, an illustrator and graphic designer based in the Netherlands.

I create colorful, story-driven illustrations that lean into mood, character, and a touch of cheekiness. Inspired by everyday life, friendships, people-watching, and personal experiences, my work explores the moments, feelings, and details that make people who they are.

For me, it's all about color, warmth, coziness, life, and humor.

My Creative Process

"A lot of my process happens before I start drawing. I gather inspiration through visual research, personal experiences, conversations, and observing everyday life.

Once I have an idea, I sketch, refine, color, and build the atmosphere of the image through lighting, texture, and story details before preparing it for print."
