Andreia Almeida – Designer

Illustrator and designer specializing in children's picture books, with a focus on scientific and nature illustration.

Overview

I'm a multidisciplinary illustrator from Portugal with a background in graphic design. My work spans science and children’s illustration, with a focus on digital techniques.

A formal course in Scientific Illustration reignited my passion for drawing and deepened my connection to nature. My goal is to pursue a career in science communication, supporting wildlife education, research, and conservation.
