KEYLA VALERIO

I have a BFA in Illustration from the Ringling College of Art and Design and graduated in 2010. I worked as a graphic artist/designer at Polo Ralph Lauren for six and a half years, and am represented by Cadence Comic Art.

With my background in Illustration and my experience working as a Graphic Designer, I’ve been able to work in everything from catalogs, website re-design and layout, men’s apparel and accessory design, women’s accessory design, and apparel graphics. Currently working doing private comic commissions, comic cover art, original art/digital illustration and merchandise. I’m also an adjunct professor at the College for Creative Studies.

My most recent works include variant and A-covers for Power Rangers (Mighty Morphin, Go-Go, and Unlimited) via BOOM! Studios. In 2021, I did a limited retailer exclusive variant run for “Cult of Dracula” published by Source Point Press. This led to being the main cover artist for their second installment, “Rise of Dracula.” Through SPP I worked on numerous variant covers for multiple titles, and also worked on a wonderful retailer exclusive for IMAGE Comics & Royal Collectibles called “What’s the Furthest Place from Here?” I worked on a variant for a new Batman series, covers for two upcoming series coming out of BOOM!Studios, and most recently covers for the Stranger Things comic published by Darkhorse.
