I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I would observe and draw everything I found beautiful, especially little animals and nature.
I studied Graphic Design in Caldas da Rainha. In 2011, through Arte de Portas Abertas in Funchal’s Zona Velha, I rediscovered the world of brushes, colors, oil, and acrylic, and it was then that painting became my great passion. For four years, I worked with other artists—experiences that taught me a lot and shaped my vision.

Sculpture started as a hobby, almost out of curiosity, and gradually became a more serious and integral part of my work.
I am a restless artist, always seeking new forms of expression and learning.

This portfolio brings together only a part of my journey—30 pieces, to be exact. Some were real challenges, others arose from unexpected experiences, but all carry process, intention, and discovery.

To follow my work more closely, see the daily life in my studio, and discover new pieces as they appear, I invite you to follow me on Instagram: @dinacroart.
