About

Raxenne Maniquiz is a graphic designer and illustrator from the Philippines. Her work depicts images of flora and fauna—mostly the kind endemic to her country—drawn with deep, painterly strokes and brilliant contrasts. These finely textured illustrations appear in brand campaigns, product packaging, apparel design, stationery, and published materials.

She has worked on projects for Adobe, Bloomberg, Dr.Martens, Doubleday, L’Occitane, M.A.C. Cosmetics, Nike/Jordan, Shake Shack, Stefan Sagmeister, and Uniqlo to name a few. She has been featured in CNN, Digital Arts, GirlsClub Asia, L’Officiel, and Out of Print. In 2021, she won the prestigious Young Gun award—an international, portfolio-based competition that identifies and celebrates today’s vanguard of young creatives.

 Raxenne continues to explore flora and fauna as the subjects of her personal work. Her ongoing series on endemic flowering plants began in 2019 and continues with a set of illustrated distribution maps. Through these, she expands not only her drawing techniques but also her exposure to research being done on local plant species.
