Oi! I'm Fê, a children's book illustrator based in Santos, Brazil. I've been drawing since I was a kid, and over the past few years I've turned that passion into a profession, working alongside a few talented authors to bring incredible stories to life. I love working with vibrant colors, a touch of magic and, whenever I can, a good dose of humor. I believe every good children's illustration carries a promise: that anything is possible. And that's the feeling I try to deliver on every page. When I'm not drawing, you'll probably find me taking it easy at home with my pug, at the beach, playing guitar, or at the gym (sometimes more than one of those at once). I plan to keep drawing until my arms fall off, so if you're an agent, editor or author looking for someone to bring your story to life, I'd love to hear from you.
