Food is Renewal: Marisol Ortega

Tattooed smiling Marisol in sleeveless dress against tile wall

Marisol Ortega

Marisol Ortega (@marisol.ortega) is a first-generation Mexican-American designer, illustrator, and letterer living and working in Seattle, Washington. She is best known for her vibrant flora and fauna illustrations that play with texture, linework, bold color palettes, and organic shapes—reflecting an exploration of her cultures. She pulls inspiration from childhood memories of visiting her abuela’s home in Michoacán, Mexico.


#ArtistsForFoodJusticeTwelve Washington artists from Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) communities and marginalized identities interpret our monthly Meaning of Food themes through original digital artwork, premiering on the first day of each month.
