Oh, Hello!
​
My name is Raquel Busa, and I'm the founder of Maquina 37, an illustration and surface design company.
​
If you are looking for great products, illustration services, or classes, you've come to the right place.
It fills me with joy to illustrate characters, words, and images that help create a kinder, more inclusive world.
I would love to help with your next project.
"As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others."

I believe in
​
INCLUSION
Representation matters to a child's self-esteem. My favorite illustrations are about or for underrepresented children in BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.
RESPECT
Everyone has an authentic and valid perspective. I love taking the time to help customers discover and articulate their message before sitting down to draft the first image.
HONESTY
Communication and trust are essential in creating successful relationships with my clients. I strive to have integrity and be transparent.
EMPOWERMENT
Making a profit does not always lead to happiness. I help charities fundraise for causes that educate or provide tools to help children participate.
