Cachetejack
Nuria Bellver and Raquel Fanjul are Cachetejack. Based in Valencia, Spain this illustration duo takes to the universe of colours, energy, humour and irony.
The hand drawn work of Cachetejack takes a fresh and unique style working in a variety of mediums, including—but not limited to—books, magazines, newspapers, clothing, drawing, painting, walls and illustration. Cachetejack combines reality with their own twist to create situations and environments the viewer can relate.
