About
Hi, I’m Pedro (1991, PT) and I’m a visual communicator and a storyteller.
I work mostly with illustration and graphic design (Children and Young Adult, Editorial and Cultural Communication)
My interdisciplinary education and professional experience made me open and curious to new processes, projects and ideas.
It also made me flexible to find new ways to communicate in a more creative and efficient way.
Feel free to contact me for questions, commissions, projects or collaborations!
