She has worked in the fashion industry, wardrobe for television and theater, styling, art direction and product design and development.

Sole Otero started working as an illustrator in 2005, when she was studying comic design at EAH (Escuela argentina de historieta) and La Productora. She has also studied children's illustration with Claudia Legnazzi, and she did several art courses during high school and university. But she wasn't expecting to work as an illustrator and a comic artist. It all began suddenly when an editor took a look at her folder and called to offer her a job. As soon as Sole received the assignment she felt it was the perfect job. She'd been drawing since she was a little girl, but she did it just because it was fun. She finds that working as an illustrator and using her imagination in daily work is amazing. Mari Bolte is an author of children's books and a lover of art.
