Beatriz Duarte (Beebarts) is a Portuguese illustrator and pattern designer. Her work centres on nature, animals, and food - explored across both traditional and digital media. Academically trained in painting with parallel experience as a comic book colorist and live event illustrator, she is in the early stages of building a surface pattern design practice alongside an active illustration career.
Colour-led and texture-rich, with a warm focus on natural subjects: animals, plants, food, and everyday comforts. Her pet bunny Tambor appears as a recurring subject. Selected Instagram images (4 patterns) suggest nature-based motifs rendered with a warm, expressive quality. Work transitions between traditional and digital aesthetics. Placement images (4) suggest product mock-up and stationery applications.
Traditional: gouache painting, coloured pencils, collage. Digital: Photoshop (professional), Illustrator (beginner), After Effects and DaVinci Resolve (beginner). She describes herself as flexible across media, combining traditional and digital tools.
Open to commissions; a shop is available via Instagram link. Prior experience as a comic book colorist for Portuguese publishers (King Pin Books, Polvo, Escorpião Azul) and as a live event illustrator. No surface pattern licensing clients are documented. Placement images suggest potential for stationery, greeting cards, and home goods.
Beatriz holds a Bachelor's Degree in Painting from Faculdade de Belas Artes da Universidade de Lisboa (2019-2023), a Photoshop foundation course from Oddschool (2022-2023), and a Specialized Professional Course in Jewelry from Escola Artística António Arroio (2016-2019). In 2024-2025 she enrolled in an Illustration for New Media course at ETIC. She has worked as a comic book colorist for multiple Portuguese publishers and as a live illustrator for events. She won the Trophy for Best Short Story at Central Comics in 2024 and exhibited at Amadora BD and other festivals in 2025.
Selected pattern images (4) suggest nature-led compositions - animals, botanicals, and food subjects rendered with colour and texture emphasis. Specific repeat structures are not documented. The work appears suited to greeting cards, stationery, home goods, and character-licensing contexts rather than large-scale textile applications at this stage.
