Honey Truffle Co

Nicole Lulinski (she goes by Luli) is an illustrator and the creator of HoneyTruffle Co. She loves to draw girls with giant heads and bad attitudes. Honeytruffles are what she calls her illustrations of ridiculous thoughts, favorite quotes, cool people, and rad fashion because they're small, sweet and exactly what you need. Follow @Honeytruffleco on Instagram even though she has no clue where she's going.

Have you always been creative and artistic?

My mom is an artist and art projects were just always around when I was little. I like to see in the world through a million different filters and creating stuff has always been so much fun for me = creative and artistic.

How would you describe the style of your work?

I like clean, black outlines (and really messy hair.) People have called my work cute, but it prefers to be called hot.

What’s in your pencil case and what’s your favorite tool?

I draw everything on my iPad Air and my Intuos Creative Stylus - welcome to the future. Bamboo Paper and Procreate are my go-to apps for creating honeytruffles (what I call my illustrations.)

Who is your favorite superhero?

Aquaman. Or Vinny Chase. I sometimes wear Batman underwear, so also Batman.

If you could have one super power what would it be?

I wish I wasn’t messy, so I need a superpower where I could just snap my fingers and my whole life could organize, clean and color code itself. Also, super speed laundry folding.

Where do you look for inspiration?

Instagram. Lana Del Ray Pandora. Supermarket people-watching. I take a lot of walks to make up for the amount of time I spend on Reddit and I always end up seeing things that inspire me.

Who are your favorite artists or comic book authors?

I’m Argentinean and I grew up obsessed with Argentinean comics like Gaturro by Nik, Mafalda by Quino and Clemente Carlos ‘Caloi’ Loiseau. Bill Watterson and Charles Schulz top off my list of my list of Totally Amazing Thought-Provoking Talented Cartoonists.
