About

I’m a senior 2D artist based in Lisbon, working across concept design, illustration, and visual development for games and entertainment. Over the past years, I’ve delivered character and environment art for major IP titles including Marvel, Magic: The Gathering, and Star Wars licensing, and I’ve also supported a broad range of art and in-game asset needs across AAA productions.

I’m comfortable moving quickly between thumbnail exploration and fully polished final art—often managing both phases within the same week. I’ve worked as a generalist artist with a focus on consistent visual storytelling, collaborating closely with art direction and creative teams to translate briefs into market-ready key art and in-game visuals.
