New year, new blog

I'm moving to Tumblr to celebrate new beginnings. After years of working as a graphic designer, I finally got the courage to dedicate myself more seriously to Illustration. It's time to change, to let go of the past and say Hello to new projects and challenges.
Let's do it!
I have started the year with many great and demanding projects and I'm still really busy but I will write on the new blog more often, or so I hope.
Don't forget to update your Feedly :)
Hope you enjoy the new Room For Improvement

Mamatschi draft and color study


Mummy

There was once a small boy
Who begged so treacly
Mummy, give me a little horse
A little horse would be my paradise

Crazy Cat People Exhibition




Ilustradores nacionais e internacionais uniram-se a convite da ilustradora Lara Luís, para ajudar a instituição Gatil Bastet (Terroso), que cuida e acolhe gatos de rua, proporcionando-lhes um novo lar. Ajude você também, comprando obras únicas a um preço simbólico.
Exposição a decorrer entre os dias 7 a 27 de Janeiro de 2012 no Posto de Turismo da Póvoa de Varzim.


As a crazy cat person I'll be part of the big exhibition "Crazy Cat People", at Póvoa do Varzim. Several illustrators offered some artwork to sell and help an institution (Gatil Bastet) that takes care of abandoned cats.

I made some new drawings about... cats!
