Home Sweet Home coming soon...

Instead of staying in our home sweet home this sunday, we decided to go out to the park and share with you the beautiful sunny day... We made a small piknik and we brought our pets with us (we were out of grass at home). It was the perfect spot to take photos because home doesn't mean indoors. Home is like an open window that brings us the warm sun into our hearts...

"Magic potion" is the continuation of the "Witch in the forest" story. In this illustration the Witch is preparing a not very delicious-looking potion made with frogs, bat wings and apple juice... The first person the get this illustration placed it in her kitchen... I just hope she doesn't get too much inspired :)

This illustration was made for a children's book competition in 2014. We couldn't win but it was an amazing experience to work over this magical story. You won't find this illustration in any book but you will find it in Maracujá Project :)

"Bom Dia Alegria" veya "Günaydın Mutluluk"... Yaşadığın şehrin sesleriyle yeni bir güne uyanıp yatağından fırlar, tazeleyici serin bir duş alırsın ve ardından pencereleri açıp dünyaya "Günaydın!" diye haykırırsın... mükemmel bir güne mükemmel bir başlangıç!

This illustration was inspired in the cute and clumsy topography of Porto city. The feeling behind "Bom Dia Alegria", or "Good morning Hapiness", is the perfect way to start your day. You wake up with the sounds of your city, jump out from your bed, you take a  fresh shower, open the window, take a deep breath and just shout to the world: Bom Dia!!!! And the best of your day is yet to come...

For this illustration I was inspired by the sea, its waves and fishes, its brave ships and sunked cities. This was also inspired in the traditional portuguese art of ceramic tiles, that can be seen inside and outside the building of Lisbon or Porto. These tiles/illustration represent the lost city of Atlantis under a caravel from the Discoveries times...
