Camilla d'Errico (September 30, 1980) is a Canadian visual artist based out of Vancouver, BC, who creates artwork for comic books. She is also also a painter, displaying in galleries in the Lowbrow genre across the United States and Canada.

Her style is heavily influenced by manga and her use of bright colours and ability to convey intense emotions is a hallmark of her work.

Biography

Comics

Camilla d’Errico has been drawing comic books since 2001, while attaining her Illustration and Design diploma at Capilano College in North Vancouver. Her first professional comic book project was with Seattle and New York based Committed Comics, for the series "Threads". She then took on the role of lead penciler for the four-part mini series "Zevon-7". When "Zevon-7" creator Quenton Shaw launched QEW Publishing in 2004, Camilla’s creator-owned manga series, "Burn", was added to the studio’s project base and was subsequently published by Arcana Studios in May 2008.

In 2006 she was approached by House of Parlance [ [http://www.mangapunk.com/forum/news/interview_with_camilla_derrico_artist_of_make5wishes Interview with Camilla d'Errico] ] to work on the graphic novel for singer Avril Lavigne. Together with Joshua Dysart, Camilla d’Errico co-created the two-part graphic novel, entitled Make 5 Wishes, which was published in 2007 by Del Rey Manga and Random House in North America and by Tokyopop in Asia. In 2007, Camilla d’Errico became the artist [ [http://www.mangapunk.com/forum/news/interview_on_nightmares_fairy_tales_artist_camilla_derrico Interview on Nightmares & Fairy Tales - Artist Camilla d'Errico] ] for Serena Valentino’s series, Nightmares & Fairy Tales, published by Slave Labour Graphics, beginning with issue 19.

Other current comic projects include work on a combined videogame and manga with Vancouver-based Day 21 Studios. Camilla will soon begin working with famed comic book writer, Grant Morrison, on a new creator owned project, "My Atomika Bomb", to be published by Vertigo.

Painting

Camilla d’Errico’s career as a painter began in 2006, when she participated in shows at Vancouver’s Ayden Gallery in Gastown. Since early 2007, Camilla d’Errico has been a regular participant in group shows in the Los Angeles galleries Thinkspace, Copro Nason and Gallery 1988. She is among the group of female artists including Audrey Kawasaki, Amy Sol, Sarah Joncas, and Stella-im-Hultberg, who paint females as their subjects. She is part of what may be the first art movement in Western history where women are not second-class citizens, but may even have an edge in the mind of the public, especially when it comes to capturing the essence that is woman. One of the main features of Camilla d’Errico’s paintings is the emotional complexity evident in each character and the fact that every girl always shows a different and intriguing mix of emotions.

Commercial work

In parallel to comics and manga, Camilla has done illustration and design work for Ride Snowboards, Hasbro Toys, Wizkids, OSO Design House and Ginch Gonch, amongst others.

Dark Horse Comics has licensed her art for a Journal and Stationery Set, and Punchbrand has used her as their flagship artist for their artists' series Crazyhats. In July 2008 at the International Taipei Toy Fair, OSO Design House will launch a line of handbags, accessories, clothing and toys designed by Camilla.
