Caroline Michelon – Designer

Illustrator bringing stories to life with vibrant visuals. From cool characters to detailed designs for books, Let's create!

Overview

Hi, I’m Caroline, a creative director, graphic designer, and illustrator with a strong background in publishing and a passion for creative direction.

I excel at blending culture with design to create unique visual narratives.

Notable projects include cover illustrations for Netflix's Cordel—the first Brazilian movie they created, capturing the essence of North Brazilian style poetry.

I’ve illustrated children’s books that spark imagination and bring stories to life. Additionally, I’ve art directed and illustrated a comic book celebrating Brazilian folklore, blending cultural richness with vibrant visuals.

I’m skilled at translating an author’s vision into illustrations across genres—whether for children, adults, adventures, or fiction. My goal is to adapt and create visuals that captivate and resonate with readers. I value collaborations that respect the artistic process and appreciate the unique value we bring to each project. Let’s create something extraordinary together!
