==Education==
In Mexico City, López attended the Manuel Bartolome Cossio, an experimental Freinet school where he began drawing and painting at an early age. He attended after school workshops there in photography, painting, puppet making, carpentry, ceramics, tablas huicholas and theatre. In school he was able to study classical music and also learned to play a variety of folkloric instruments including the quena, guitar and drums taught by members of Los Folkloristas. Music is a prominent theme found in his illustrations and books.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= https://www.kirkusreviews.com/features/beating-drum-womens-rights/ )〕 Both his parents were architects and teachers at UNAM. As a child, he often visited the flea market with his father looking for used books and the family had a large collection that lined the walls of their living room from floor to ceiling. López regularly traveled by metro over an hour to visit the library, immersed himself in books, especially art books and grew up with a fascination for images from a variety of cultures. When he was 10 years old, his parents sent him to Exeter, England to live for several months with Mexican-born conceptual and performance artist Felipe Ehrenberg. There he explored drawing and learned to make books and use a printing press. His first book was an illustrated journal where he recorded his experiences to share with his family.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.lamorindaweekly.com/archive/issue0908/Award-Winning-Illustrator-Rafael-Lopez-Shares-Art-From-His-Heart.html )〕 In 1982, he left Mexico to study illustration at the Art Center College of Design, in Los Angeles where he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Illustration.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.happybirthdayauthor.com/2015/08/happy-birthday-rafael-lopez-august-8.html )〕
