I am an illustrator and freelance artist currently based in New Jersey, USA…
…but originally born and raised in Brazil! I share my home with my beloved wife and our two cats, Calvin and Haroldo =^.^=
My creative path began early, always surrounded by drawings, colors, and stories. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design and a Master’s in Digital Design. Since then, I’ve been working as a freelance artist for almost a decade, collaborating with indie game studios, teaching digital painting, and even experimenting with 3D printing for fun projects and products! I am always trying new creative stuff!
I love creating stylized, colorful art filled with personality and charm. My main focus today is picture book illustration, where I combine my love for storytelling and visual design. I use tools like Blender, Photoshop, and Procreate to bring my ideas to life, though I often return to my traditional roots with colored pencils and watercolor.
And, as always, no AI art!
School visit for “Got Ideas, Anyone?” debut!
When I’m not drawing, you can find me enjoying a good cup of coffee, playing retro games, or watching animated movies!
