Hello!

A little bit about me...

    I am a Brazilian illustrator with a degree in Graphic Design and I also have experience in painting and drawing, mainly.
 

 I like experiencing new flavors and reading new stories, but also some rereadings can surprise a lot, challenge stereotypes and conventions.
 

 I like to draw different emotions, "Joy" cannot be alone in control as we know. The disagreements of people or the subtleties in relationships always intrigue and inspire me. If I could name some elements/places, I would say that I like the colors of the sky, the sea, the horizons.
 

 I imagine it's always good to reflect on what you're communicating and especially what you're teaching, because for me Picture books, like playing, are very serious things.
