Hi, I’m Qondile Dlamini, an illustrator and art director based in Johannesburg. With a background in architecture and over a decade of experience in advertising, I bring a multidisciplinary approach to storytelling, blending bold visuals with thoughtful strategy.
I’m passionate about creating work at the intersection of joy and purpose, whether I'm illustrating for global brands, developing creative campaigns, or building vibrant identities. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with brands like Refinery29, Woolworths, MTV, GoDaddy Studio, Dear Friends, and Mr Price.
My process is intentional and collaborative, always guided by the desire to craft meaningful work that resonates. I’m drawn to colour, rhythm, and moments of playful chaos, helping my clients express big ideas through crafted, characterful visuals.
When I’m not behind the screen, you’ll probably find me dancing in front of the mirror, watching a reality show, or getting lost in a sketchbook exploring the next thing that makes me feel something.
