My name is Ana Graça (she/her), but online I often go by Pixie Ana. I'm an illustrator and filmmaker from Brazil, based in London and in Rio.
I specialise in children's illustrations and I love to create whimsical illustrations filled with details and stories. I have collaborated on stationary and pattern design with many brands in Brazil and worldwide, and I have had two picture books published in the USA and one in the UK!
I have also collaborated on illustrations and video content for global brands like Kores Group and Shuttle Art.
I have graduated from a Master in Filmmaking at Kingston University London where I specialised in directing fiction. I am deeply interested in visual storytelling and I have a focus on world-building and stories for children.
For films and commercial works, I am most active on the art department, as a production designer and on the camera team as a self-shooter videographer and video editor. But I also have experience on the production and location departments, having worked for the Apple TV show “Slow Horses”.
