Margarida Eloy – Designer

I'm an illustrator who loves to draw cute, happy and colourful illustrations for kids. Let's create a book together! ☀️

Overview

I am a children's book illustrator that loves to draw cute digital illustrations, inspired by a naive aesthetic and analogue techniques, with soft colours and happy vibes. My favorite characters are usually sweet animals and kind humans surrounded by nature. I’m always looking for new projects that challenge my imagination, I love to work with different people and to discover new stories and ideas to illustrate.

My client list includes Edicare Editora, Ajudaris, MIMP Magazine, NeuroClass, as well as independent authors and magazines from around the world.

Do you have an editorial project? I would love to hear all about it!
