I'm a Portuguese Concept Artist & Illustrator who loves creating her own characters and stories.
Inspired by myths, folklore, fantasy worlds and nature.
I'm a freelance graphic designer, cartoonist, comic writer, traditionalist Roman Catholic, conservative, student of history, gardener, chess player (the normal 3d kind), philologist, etc. Japanese speaker. etc...etc..etc.
Under the warm glow of the moon, I draw the ache of beauty, the bite of memory, and the touch of the otherworld ,softly, slowly, and sometimes a little scandalously.
I treat grief like it’s holy and lust like it’s sacred. I draw the in-between where love lingers, where love isn’t lost, only changed And yes, sometimes the ghost gets to stick around and flirt a little.
My main weapon of choice is digital illustration (Procreate on iPad), though I like to dabble in the physical too; pencil, ink, colored pencil, gouache I like to try anything at least once.
