Skills / Background: I went to Fashion School and have always been interested in graphics, illustration and art. While working as a fashion researcher and designer in Brazil, I was constantly in touch with the creative world of prints and patterns which always impressed me. It wasn’t until I moved to Australia that I decided to commit to the passion of drawing and creating patterns, with the goal to illustrate various surfaces from fashion to interiors.

Constantly experimenting in the realm of illustration on my personal projects, I often find inspiration in all things vintage. I’m usually drawn to layered and elaborate artworks. Fine liners and black ink are one of my favourites, but watercolours and gouache paintings never cease to amaze me.

Favourite Print: Rainforest by Typoflora is such a rich and impressive artwork! I love how rustic and natural it looks on a fabric like Bruge.
