ABOUT ME

Hello hello!

My name is Nathanna Érica. I'm an illustrator and paper artist based in São Paulo, Brazil. Most of my life has been defined by early animated movies, and I grew up wishing I could be part of what I love the most about the Animation industry: storytelling. It's safe to say that I've been drawing ever since I could hold a pencil, and even before that, my mom would get me to eat by distracting me with drawing lessons, so, yes, it goes without saying that I love to draw. I can't imagine my life without art, and having graduated from Law school a few years ago made me realize that doing anything other than being an artist would be really difficult.

My work focuses mainly on illustration and visual development.
