Nuno loves to work with traditional media (oils, watercolour, acrylics, Indian ink), digital or a mix between the two of them. He especially loves to create characters and imagine worlds for them. Fairy tales, magic and adventure stories are his favourite subjects to illustrate. Always pursuing his ambition of being an artist, he became an Art teacher, and doing part time illustration work.
