Graphite drawing of a profile portrait. The figure has voluminous curly hair and a serious gaze, directed to the left. An arrow pierces their neck, but there is no expression of pain. The background has shadows and lines that blend into the hair.
Something that came out of my mind when I was sad.

A woman with wavy light blue hair, adorned with many pearls, also forming a tiara. Her eyes have a supernatural appearance, milky and pupil-less, with tears of blood running down. Blood also drips from her lips. She wears an intricate necklace and silver earrings, and her dress features soft, voluminous textures. The background is hazy, with a palette in shades of pink and purple, with an ethereal atmosphere.
Initially inspired by the Childlike Empress from The Neverending Story, one of my favorite books, this piece evolved into something entirely my own through heavy stylization.
I guess I enjoy painting pearls and blood a little too much. ✨

A drawing depicting the face of a melancholic figure, with blood dripping from the nostrils, dark skin, wild wavy hair flying above the head. Arabesques adorn the lower part of the figure, and branches and leaves are intertwined in the hair. A third eye is visible on the forehead.
A drawing of a feminine figure with blindfolded eyes, with large bloodstains visible on the fabric where the eyes should be. A few drops run down her face like tears. Delicate curls flow through the air around her.
A detailed drawing of a mermaid with her hair floating around her, arms raised in distinct positions, and her tail curling, showcasing numerous scales and multiple pairs of fins with a long tail. The background is black, contrasting with the drawing.
A drawing of a hamadryad with wavy hair ending in a braid resting on her shoulder, with leaves and branches sprouting from her hair.
I only have a few monochromatic pieces, most of them from my sketchbook, and these are my favorites.

If my memory serves me right, this one is from my oldest and most complete sketchbook—my other unicorns are scattered or lost. It's a rough sketch, yet it holds a certain charm.

Digital painting of a woman with freckled skin with sparkles, colorful hair in shades of red and teal, and a unicorn horn on her forehead. The background is dark and nebulous, enhancing the mystical atmosphere.
A painted portrait of a dear friend with some experimental brushes—a gentle reminder that I love creating commissioned portraits! ✨🩷✨

A sketch of a mermaid with floating hair and her hands on her face, in deep sorrow.
"On the evenings when the mermaids rose through the water like this, arm in arm, their youngest sister stayed behind all alone, looking after them and wanting to weep. But a mermaid has no tears, and therefore she suffers so much more." (Andersen)

The image shows a graphite drawing of a female figure in profile, with delicate features and detailed shading. The figure's hair transforms into branches and roots that spread out, while small leaves appear around her, with a dark, ethereal and organic atmosphere.
I have several sketchbooks and switch between them, but I think I’ve only finished two. I drew this one in my favorite; ran out of space, so I ended up drawing on the personal information page. 🥹

A step-by-step look at my GRIS fanart, featuring five images in sequence. The final image is fully detailed and described in the following slide.
A digital painting young woman with short, messy hair in shades of blue and green with red streaks. She has golden eyeshadow, pale skin with golden freckles, and wears a red outfit with a dark side, from which butterflies seem to flow. A soft blue halo surrounds her head, set against an ethereal background of bluish and green tones, dotted with small stars, evoking a melancholic and dreamy atmosphere.

Image description: A digital painting of Mary Magdalene in soft, luminous tones. The figure has wavy brown hair cascading over her shoulders, with a melancholic and devoted expression on her face. She holds a book in one hand and a wooden cross in the other, with a skull visible beside her. A golden halo frames her head, highlighting her figure against an ethereal background of pastel-toned clouds.

An old mermaid sketch I drew on the back cover of a notebook, with paper that was particularly unfavorable for creating subtle shading.
(over time, you'll see that I have plenty of these mermaid sketches)

A digital illustration in progress features a mermaid with long, voluminous white hair, a tail with various shades, primarily green and cool tones, and a misty background. The drawing is in the sketch phase, with loose lines and details still being developed
WIP
is this what they call the ugly phase? My lineart is never clean, but it think the chaos has its own charm. ✨

An illustration of Queen Serenity from Sailor Moon, featuring long white hair flowing in organic, wavy shapes, as if floating. Her hair is adorned with delicate pink roses and green leaves intertwined around a white crown. She holds additional flowers in her hands, with harmony between the natural elements and her figure. Glitter-like luminous points surround the corners of her eyes and scatter across parts of the image. The background in soft blue tones has a misty effect, with a dreamy and ethereal atmosphere.
Queen Serenity.
As a fan of Sailor Moon, it's natural for me to create something inspired by the anime. I made several WIPs and sketches, but this was the only one I truly liked enough to finish. ✨

Her red eyes weep bloody tears that streak down her face. Her lips are stained with blood and reveal fangs. Her dark, wavy, and voluminous hair frames her face, interspersed with pearls. A teardrop-shaped jewel adorns her forehead.
Judith Beheading Holofernes A composition with three figures. In the center, Judith holds a sword with red marks of blood in one hand and the severed head of Holofernes in the other.

The background includes draped fabric in light green tones and a dark sky.

An angelic figure with voluminous curly hair, dressed in a flowing golden and white gown.

The painting depicts the face of a woman with striking features, glowing skin, and an intense gaze, set amidst an ethereal composition of nebulous colors. Shades of blue, pink, and red blend together, making her hair and the background appear intertwined with a starry galaxy. Small points of light, resembling stars, enhance the glow across her face and the scene,with a magical and dreamlike atmosphere. The signature "Lourdes Saraiva" is subtly positioned in the bottom right corner.
I also do portrait paintings on commission, but I made this one especially as a gift for my friend Julia ✨🩷

The painting depicts Apollo and Daphne in a moment of transformation. Daphne, with a serene expression, is in the process of turning into a tree, with branches and leaves sprouting from her arms and body. Her hair flows gently, and a purple fabric drapes over part of her figure. Apollo, kneeling beside her, gazes at her with an expression of desire and melancholy, his hands touching the forming trunk. The background features a lush and shadowy forest, with soft lights highlighting the characters, giving the scene an ethereal atmosphere.
Apolo and Daphne. A painting from 2016, a time when I still had so much to learn, but one I hold dear for capturing the moment I created it. It's always interesting to revisit old works and remember how much the process itself is part of the artistic journey

This is a fan art of Astarion from Baldur's Gate 3. A pale-skinned vampire with wavy white hair is holding a blood-stained dagger in one hand, with blood dripping both from the blade and from his lips. His eyes are an intense red, surrounded by a pinkish mist, and there is a reddish halo in the background, creating a dramatic contrast with the dark setting. Ornamental golden details frame the image.
