Hello, my name is Jeri Venegas.

I’m a freelance illustrator, live event artist, and pet portraitist. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, currently based in Austin. I earned my BFA in Illustration from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2020.

My passion for animals, curiosity, fantasy, and humor drive my work. I love to use intense colors, strong compositions, and magic to create my own lively characters and enchanting atmospheres. I use traditional acrylic painting methods for my illustration and portrait painting work for its tangible qualities and characteristics of being made by a human hand.

Outside of the studio, I like to see live music, hang out with my cats, and explore my city’s museums and parks!

I would love to work with you on projects big or small in advertising, publication, gaming, editorial, music and more.

Clients include: Meow Wolf, David Yurman, Marc Jacobs, AWAY Travel, Nordstrom, Crooked Lane Publishing, Houston Museum of Natural Science.
