Hi, I’m Lauren!

I am a Brazilian children’s book illustrator! In the past few years I have illustrated over 20 books, including Picture Books, Educational Books, Coloring Books and Chapter Books.

Before finding my passion for children’s literature, I got a Bachelor’s Degree and worked as a Graphic Designer for a few years, while creating art for commissions on the side.

I absolutely adore creating characters that teach kids to be themselves without fear or shame, and I love making my art as cozy, whimsy and magical as possible!
