I’m having a little trouble processing this much talent in one person. These are the colorful, joy-filled artworks by Nathanna Érica. The Brazilian artist reports that she spent her childhood delighting in book illustrations and animation and yearning to be a part of them.
“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 comes 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 see that doing anything else other than being an artist would be really difficult.”
-About Nathanna Érica
Law school? How did that happen? While I’m sure Érica would have made a fine lawyer, I’m very glad she’s pursuing paper art, illustration, and character design instead. I love the way she can make any character, no matter how contemporary (or dark), look like they’re straight out of a 1950s children’s book. Her Audrey Hepburn series has driven me particularly insane with need. I want them all!
You can follow the amazing Nathanna Érica on her website, Instagram, and in her Etsy shop.

Wow! Her work is fantastic (I especially loved her Stan Lee.) I’m following her on *everything* now.

My mom immersed me in all things Audrey at a very young age (and I’ve done the same with Kate)— I just love everything about her! These posters are amazing!
