Natura Creativă

For those seeking calm

Illustration and nature

We believe art is a refuge. We work with people who want to disconnect from daily noise through simple illustrations, friendly characters, and motifs inspired by birds and plants. Our focus is not perfect technique, but the emotion that a soft stroke or a pastel color awakens.

“Drawing a bird is not copying its shape, but capturing its flight on paper.”

A kind and close tone

Visual communication

We speak with the same gentleness with which we illustrate. We avoid grandiose phrases or empty promises; we prefer to explain how a bright background or a palette of earth tones can transform a space. Our texts are slow-paced, like a conversation over an afternoon tea.

“Simplicity is not visual poverty, it is clarity that embraces.”

For creators of any level

Hobby and learning

It doesn't matter if you've never picked up a brush or if you already have a notebook full of sketches. Our content is designed to guide you step by step, with ideas you can apply at home: from setting up a reading nook with bird motifs to drawing a branch with watercolor. Here, the mistake is part of the process.

“Every imperfect stroke tells a more authentic story.”

From a sketchbook to a creative community

It all started in 2018, when Alexia drew small birds in the margins of her notes. Those sketches turned into a collection of illustrations she shared on social media, and the response was so warm that she decided to launch a store with prints and notebooks. In 2020, after moving to a studio with natural light, she began organizing in-person watercolor and minimalist drawing workshops. Word of mouth helped the project grow, and in 2022 we opened our first group exhibition in Santiago de Compostela, with over 200 visitors. Today, Fat Birdie is a space where illustration, nature, and calm come together, and we continue to expand our offerings with online courses and collaborations with local artists.
