bio: As a child I used to create my own characters and draw crazy comic strips about them. As a teenager I started drawing fantasy women, elves, dwarves and all that nerd stuff. Then I studied graphic design in UFRJ – Rio de Janeiro and later illustration in Escola Massana - Barcelona. As I like to be always “upgrading”, I’ve done many free courses of cartoon, comics, animation, softwares, artist-book, experimental calligraphy… My next step is a master’s degree. Now I like to draw real people, rodents, plants and horizons. Some collages to relax.

When I’m not working, I’m meditating, fighting or teaching.
