Gabor Estefan is a creative professional with a diverse background in photography, illustration, and graphic design. Based in Italy, Gabor’s creative journey spans over eight years, beginning with a successful career as a freelance photographer in London, where he specialized in vibrant portraits, striking images of vintage cars, and colourful urban landscapes. His photography, full of life and colour, has been featured in prestigious publications, capturing the essence of travel and the beauty of fleeting moments.
However, in 2020, during the global lockdown, Gabor found himself unable to continue photographing the lively streets of London. Undeterred, he used this time to explore new avenues of creative expression. Armed with an iPad, Gabor delved into digital illustration, inspired by his love of colour and the groovy, funky aesthetics of the 1970s. His passion for illustration grew steadily, and it wasn’t long before he developed a distinctive style defined by bold shapes, smooth lines, and warm, playful tones.
Gabor’s illustrations radiate positivity and joy, with a focus on uplifting emotions and vivid storytelling. His influences are drawn from a wide array of sources: the vibrancy of Bauhaus and Pop Art, his experiences living in different countries, the changing seasons, nature, and his extensive travels. Everything from everyday objects to current events serves as inspiration, with Gabor infusing his personal experiences into his work to ensure an authentic and personal touch.
Known for his fearless use of bold colours, Gabor crafts each piece to evoke happiness, creativity, and inspiration in others. Whether it’s merchandise, book covers, greeting cards, or social media campaigns, his artwork feels like a celebration of life, joy, and hope.
Gabor's ultimate goal is to become a well-known illustrator, using his work to inspire fellow creatives, spread positivity, and contribute to a more hopeful and joyful world. With a deep commitment to originality, Gabor prides himself on staying true to his personal style, keeping his work fresh and unique while encouraging others to embrace their individuality and creativity.
Now living in Sicily, Gabor serves clients worldwide, continuing to create art that spreads warmth and optimism while inspiring others to find their own creative voice.
