Bruna Bastos is a Brazilian illustrator with a background in animation and story development. Her early love for fantasy books drew her toward the creative field, driven by a curiosity to look beyond the everyday. She later found her way into animation, working across art and story development, where she built a strong foundation in visual storytelling. Drawing from both literature and animation, her work blends the mundane with the magical, creating gentle, character-driven worlds for young audiences. Raised in an all-female household as the youngest of three sisters, Bruna is especially passionate about telling stories in which girls can see themselves truly reflected—with warmth, humor, and emotional depth. When she’s not drawing, Bruna can usually be found playing with her dogs, enjoying sweet treats, or watching a cozy early-2000s rom-com.
