Hi, I'm Andreia Melo!
— an artist and illustrator inspired by the natural world and the quiet connection we share with it.
Through watercolor, gouache, and drawing, I create illustrations that bring people closer to animals, plants, and the places around us — using color, softness, and intention.
My work moves between real-life observation and small imagined worlds, where beauty, curiosity, and storytelling come together. I work on personal and commissioned projects, including original paintings, book illustrations, surface designs, and visual narratives. I also teach private lessons and creative workshops for those who want to explore their own connection with nature through art. Alongside my illustration work, I'm the founder and designer behind Niutrik, a pet accessories brand that blends art, animals, and color in a fun, stylish way. All Niutrik products feature my original illustrations, bringing joy and personality to everyday life with pets. If you're drawn to expressive animals, delicate nature scenes, or want to learn how to illustrate the world around you — you're in the right place.
Vision
Bringing people closer to nature through art.
My work is rooted in the desire to spark curiosity, empathy, and wonder for the natural world — bridging who we are with what surrounds us.
Mission
I create illustrations and visual stories that celebrate the beauty of nature in a delicate, expressive, and narrative style.
Through watercolor, gouache, and drawing, I aim to inspire, educate, and collaborate with people and brands who share a sensitive and curious view of the natural world.
