Hello there! I'm Vitor
I'm originally from Portugal but found my true home in Poland.
As a wildlife illustrator, I invite you to join me on my artistic journey, where I strive to tell the untold stories of animals - expressing the beauty and wonder of hidden narratives in a language all its own.
​
​
In the hustle and bustle of today's fast-paced world, I truly believe we just need to take a moment to pause and observe the world around us to start uncovering the extraordinary treasures that nature has to offer - vibrant colours, intricate patterns, captivating details - and fall in love with them!
For me, there is no finer way of doing that than through drawing and painting - immersing myself in the wondrous tapestry of wildlife that graces our planet.
How it all started!​
​
I believe my fascination with animals and art has always gone hand in hand. From childhood, I found myself deeply captivated by the natural world, spending countless hours absorbed in wildlife encyclopedias and learning to sketch by copying the illustrations therein.
Despite pursuing a degree in Architecture, my love for wildlife remained unchanged, and I always maintained a dedicated sketchbook for my artistic explorations and observations of the natural world.
​
My journey took an unexpected turn when I moved to Poland, where I'm involved by nature in a way I had never experienced before! Surrounded by lush landscapes and diverse wildlife, I can find inspiration at every turn.
Over time, I realised how my true joy and sense of fulfilment lay in drawing and painting.
I started spending more time with my art supplies, honing my skills - evolving both artistically and personally - until wildlife art became an integral part of who I am!
Yet, I see it all as just the very beginning of a journey filled with endless adventures, and I look ahead to all future artworks and projects with the greatest excitement and a big smile on my face.
I'm so happy for your interest in my art and for your willingness to join me on this journey of creativity and discovery!
