Marta Pato

Hi! I'm Marta, a Portuguese artist living in the UK. By night, I work as a nurse, but by day, I'm a passionate fantasy illustrator working to transform my artistic career into a full-time pursuit.

My portfolio includes collaborations with private clients and commercial projects, specializing in character design and illustration. In my online shop, you'll find a diverse collection of original artwork and fan art, including prints, stationery, charms, pins, and apparel.

In 2025, I've begun exhibiting at various events across the UK as a trader, with hopes to expand internationally in the future. Check out my events list (just scroll down) to see where you can find me next!

I'm always open to new opportunities and available for freelance work and contracted projects, whether you're an individual client or a company. If you're interested in working together, please don't hesitate to reach out :)
