Hey! I'm Melissa
I'm Melissa, an artist and product designer passionate about data visualization and watercolors. My journey has always been driven by a deep desire for independence and creativity. After studying art and design and spending 15 years working in the tech industry in Lima, Barcelona and Paris, I decided to focus on designing mindful experiences and painting nature-inspired art—a vision that led to the creation of Lupuna Studio.
Today, I support brands in creating unique visual identities and data infographics, putting my expertise and experience to work on inspiring projects. As a watercolorist & designer, I joyfully combine my artistic and professional life, finding a balance that fuels my creativity. This duality allows me to develop a passionate and disciplined approach, where every detail counts, with the mission of telling your stories through purposeful visual designs.
My values
MIDNFULLNESS
I cultivate awareness in everything I do, from design to execution, ensuring that each action is intentional, present, and in harmony with the environment. This allows me to express myself with authenticity and meaning.
SUSTAINABILITY
My work reflects a commitment to ethical craftsmanship, inspired by the resilience of the Amazonian Lupuna. I integrate ecological practices, use sustainable materials, and support local trade collaborations.
CREATIVE VISUALIZATION
I believe in the power of imagination to shape reality. Creative visualization drives my art & designs, allowing me to explore new perspectives, embrace innovation, and transform complex information into tangible and authentic visuals.
Lupuna studio's mission
My goal is to help people to develop their creativity and personal well-being through nature-inspired art and mindful design. I created a set of tools and services that transform ideas into visual data stories.
