Insects of Mexico by Tintograma in Mexico City
Insects of Mexico
Mexico is incredibly rich in insect diversity, yet we often overlook these species. Because we’re disconnected from nature, we miss the amazing colors, forms, and roles insects play—pollinating, balancing ecosystems, and keeping life running smoothly. When we don’t know them, their decline goes unnoticed. But once we learn how fascinating they are, we form a connection, and suddenly their presence matters

Meet the Artist
Mexico City, MexicoI’ve loved drawing and illustration since I was a kid. I grew up surrounded by Asterix and Obelix comics, Moebius, and all sorts of art books. I took art classes from a young age, so experimenting with styles and getting lost in drawing has always felt natural to me.
These days, I work mostly with ink—digital or traditional—with a vintage-but-modern vibe that works great for designs that want elegance or something eye-catching. I also do digital illustrations in color or black and white, from landscapes and animals to nature and fantasy pieces, anywhere from minimalist to more realistic styles. I’ve created magazine and book covers, T-shirt designs, stickers, mobile cards, and beer labels for a couple of Mexican breweries.
I’m also a tattoo artist—@tintograma on Instagram—working mainly in two styles: high-contrast minimalism and an engraving-inspired look. I’ve been tattooing for six years now, and I’m always happy to help with advice or custom design ideas.
