Jerilyn Guerrero is a CHamoru & Filipino illustrator and designer born on the island of Guam and based in Los Angeles, CA.
Jerilyn Guerrero is a Los Angeles-based artist known for her vibrant and heart-centered artwork that celebrates personal growth, reconnection with nature, and finding joy in the slower rhythms of everyday life. Through bold colors and forms, her art ranges from grounding to energizing, creating a visual language shaped by heritage, nature, and self-expression.
Jerilyn’s creative journey has led her to collaborate with a wide range of clients, from small businesses to established brands such as Adobe, Wrappr, Society6, Good Store, University of Guam Press, and more. Before finding her path as an independent artist, she earned her BFA in Web Design & New Media at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. She weaves her 10 years of experience as a marketing designer with her multidisciplinary skills into her creative practice, balancing both thoughtful design and intuitive expression.
Embracing a heart-centered approach in both her work and in her life, Jerilyn uses her art to empower and uplift others, while encouraging gentle reflection.
Outside of work you may find her cafe hopping to try yet another iced matcha latte, dabbling in more arts n crafts, and taking leisurely walks in the sunshine. ☀️

I look to cultivate meaningful creative partnerships where we all root for each other. I care about your project as if it were my own. Check out some of my values below to see if we align.
Are we a good fit?
🌴
Authentic Connection
I aim to help brands and projects feel more human and approachable. When working together, we can express ourselves honestly as human to human for a supportive collaborative environment.
🌈
Diversity & Inclusivity
I welcome all! We support those in marginalized communities and are excited to help underrepresented voices feel seen and heard with care and cultural nuance.
💫
Creative Integrity
I approach every project with a clarity of voice, as well as research and purpose. You choose to work with me because of my expertise and creative vision to bring a unique touch to your project, rather than a rushed generic output.

Joyful Creation
Let’s have fun! We leave room for creative play, imagination, and whimsy! You value working with someone who prioritizes joy and rest to create high-quality resonant work.
