nice to meet you
I’m Samantha Chantre Dos Reis, a Portuguese creative from the Netherlands. After graduating college in 2019 and getting my bachelor in 2023, I now specialize in (character) illustrations and graphic design.
I’m an avid animation lover and adore all kinds of storytelling. It’s what lured me into the creative field and what will continue to energize me on this journey. So don’t be surprised if you find me browsing a local bookstore in my free time or see me at a concert.
My latest publications are ‘Knowing Cotton Otherwise’, a collaboration with the Fashion for Good Museum. And the translated graphic novel ‘Dromen van Sugira’.
