center around establishing an authentic, heartfelt connection with and respect for nature.Using Mexican concepts, this poignantly lyrical series invites young children to pay witness to nature, to value it, and to become a steward of the planet. The moon’s phases – new, waxing, full, and waning – are seamlessly intertwined with our own natural cadences, showcasing the power and beauty of universal interconnectedness. Acclaimed middle-grade author Aida Salazar lovingly turns her attention to the youngest readers, bringing her signature lyrical text, in English with a few Spanish words interwoven. With vibrant, mystical art, this book is a truly meaningful and formative experience for all young readers.” <img width="4000" height="2251" width_o="4000" height_o="2251" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/33e096e19927a3b20a2d3e7834f9d253d54ae223a452110e581c4b2482f05800/behance-02.jpg" data-mid="213941760" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/33e096e19927a3b20a2d3e7834f9d253d54ae223a452110e581c4b2482f05800/behance-02.jpg" /><img width="4000" height="1451" width_o="4000" height_o="1451" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/531c6b5b571958ab4707b95d8de6ecc5ee5cb8ccd840ba2cbbe4dc2aff7f9da6/behance-03.jpg" data-mid="213941761" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/531c6b5b571958ab4707b95d8de6ecc5ee5cb8ccd840ba2cbbe4dc2aff7f9da6/behance-03.jpg" /><img width="4000" height="2251" width_o="4000" height_o="2251" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5909146759fc9ed4e597d93fa627dc785daf659e1d8f171f2bbb8efaad3e7912/behance-04.jpg" data-mid="213941762" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5909146759fc9ed4e597d93fa627dc785daf659e1d8f171f2bbb8efaad3e7912/behance-04.jpg" /><img width="4000" height="2251" width_o="4000" height_o="2251" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8ce10d033bbd8a18aaa6b7974693bff9a24002204a54cc8f5238431878fc380e/behance-05.jpg" data-mid="213941763" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8ce10d033bbd8a18aaa6b7974693bff9a24002204a54cc8f5238431878fc380e/behance-05.jpg" /> https://caribaymb.com/Luz-Veliz Tue, 24 May 2022 15:40:00 +0000 Caribay Portfolio https://caribaymb.com/Luz-Veliz Shine On, Luz VélizCover illustration made for Rebecca Barcárcel’s book, edited by Chronicle Books <img width="2953" height="2954" width_o="2953" height_o="2954" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ba3a966ec1a8ea4bdf0ddcfe682de8152210490125742fc4f0cc6e73043bfe6e/luz-ig-01.png" data-mid="143522865" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ba3a966ec1a8ea4bdf0ddcfe682de8152210490125742fc4f0cc6e73043bfe6e/luz-ig-01.png" /><img width="3508" height="2480" width_o="3508" height_o="2480" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a627422824061c193131094996e3ac51516a1fde61b5218408df9a4c7c2a6f68/color-tests-LUZ-VELIZ.jpg" data-mid="143522879" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a627422824061c193131094996e3ac51516a1fde61b5218408df9a4c7c2a6f68/color-tests-LUZ-VELIZ.jpg" /><img width="3241" height="4585" width_o="3241" height_o="4585" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f7a0acaae81d9f198985bd6e7ef4ad5c9f2e98b2fd896e2e89a50308d2b24680/ShineOnFinal.jpg" data-mid="143522878" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f7a0acaae81d9f198985bd6e7ef4ad5c9f2e98b2fd896e2e89a50308d2b24680/ShineOnFinal.jpg" /> https://caribaymb.com/The-fight-that-made-us Wed, 21 Jan 2026 20:06:52 +0000 Caribay Portfolio https://caribaymb.com/The-fight-that-made-us The fight that made us <img width="5708" height="4239" width_o="5708" height_o="4239" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9d7a164a91dee1cee63a74ebdc5d244992308086843ada321fec1d0bbe113082/final-con-ajustes-para-mi-copyweb.jpg" data-mid="243773726" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9d7a164a91dee1cee63a74ebdc5d244992308086843ada321fec1d0bbe113082/final-con-ajustes-para-mi-copyweb.jpg" />I was commisioned to illustrate the cover of this young adult novel.
