Cada diseño es creado por mí y parte de un trabajo manual, concretamente de recortes de papel y cartulina. Esto significa que cada elemento, ya sea una forma, una figura o una letra, se recorta manualmente con diferentes tijeras y cortadores de papel. A continuación, organizo los elementos para crear armonía entre ellos y termino el proceso pegándolos hasta obtener el diseño final en forma de collage. A continuación, se digitaliza profesionalmente en Lagoa, en el Algarve, sin perder los trazos típicos del trabajo manual. Tras la digitalización, el diseño se imprime en papel de alta calidad o se aplica y estampa en diversos productos con diferentes técnicas: desde la serigrafía manual hasta la impresión digital UV.

My name is Christine and I love paper, colours and hand lettering. I was born and raised in southern Germany (near Stuttgart) and have been living in Portugal since 2012. After a few years in Greater Lisbon, I settled in the Algarve in 2019, where I work and live with my dog and cat to this day. I have a degree in Languages (Portuguese and Spanish linguistics) and Anthropology from LMU, Munich and UC, Coimbra, and worked for many years as a tour guide in Portugal, the Azores and Brazil. The Covid-19 pandemic forced me to stay at home for a long time. That's when I started to devote myself wholeheartedly to what I've loved doing since I was a child: inventing drawings and working with paper and colours. It was during this initial phase that many of my postcards with optimistic and motivational messages emerged. After many drawings were made and digitised, I created my brand Raposa Art in 2020. Today, I devote myself exclusively to my art and let myself be inspired by nature, from the sea to the mountains, the colours of the Algarve and the adventures of everyday life.
