Olá! Hello! 

A woman in a blue denim shirt working on a framed watercolor painting of a tree and falling leaves, with art supplies and studio lights around her.

I'm Beatriz, a Portuguese-Brazilian multi-disciplined 2D Animator and Designer based in London. 

I create expressive character animation and bold, design-led visuals for series, music videos, and commercial content.

My freelance work spans everything from music videos to games, always combining strong visual instincts with solid technical skills in Toonboom Harmony, Moho, Adobe Animate, TV Paint, and more.
