About me

My name is Ana Isabel Neto and I have a 5 years Fine Arts Degree in Painting, University of Fine Arts in Lisbon, Portugal.

I'm very creative with amazing drawing and painting skills able to capture customer's interest and to bring life to spaces with a different palette. I would love to develop my artistic skills in your company and bring my creativity and drawing skills to your customers life.

My work experience is an example of organisation, responsibility and creativity.

My current job is in a spanish children's wear Masiel Bebe located in Bristol Gardens, London. I love to work with stylish and designer baby clothes. It's always cute to create an outfit for babies and makes easier to achieve the target. It's amazing to have colourful spaces in the shopfloor, besides the happy environment it inspire and motivate us. My main duties are ensured store appearance met company standards at all time, keep always the window dresser look stunning with promotions or new collections with a strong visual impact to attract customers eye, taking photos and retouch them in Photoshop to be post on the website, provide customer service at all time and help them to select the best product for them and give informations about promotions and other services that might be useful for them, use the till for customer payments in Sales Stream EPOS program and calculate the right price and sticker it.

At Game, I worked as a sales assistant for the first time in London. This was an amazing experience, not only I learned how important is merchandise but also to keep everything organised in a busy environment. I keep and maintain the stock room always tidy and clean which helped everyone to provide a better service by find the product and being faster. As a curios person, I developed my interest for games which made me able to provide a better information to customers about products and offers. To know which games and accessories that we received every day made help my colleges informing them and the customer. I also was responsible for the delivery, storage and pricing.

In Oficina Rustica, I worked as a saleswoman, an illustrator and interior designer.

It's always amazing and fun to work with children. In this showroom I helped the dreams of every parent and child to come reality through my creativity, I give them a room full of imagination. This rooms transmit us comfort and personality of every customer, which made them unique and special. My ideas and drawing skills capture customer's interest and helped my colleges to express some great projects which increased sales. I decorate children's bedrooms and playrooms with fun wallpapers and colourful furniture with my illustrations painted by hand.

Kriacor was a magic place for everyone, grownups and children with fairies, princess, dragons, pirates, the blue ocean and many other themes. Every parent wanted to have a room like those that I made and every child desire having one. I helped them bring magic to their homes, not only by create a project but also painting them. It made me always a big smile to see their reaction, parents fascinated and thankful and children jumping of happiness for having a colourful and warm room with their favourite theme.

In some cases, customers wanted to keep their furniture but they wanted to give another look, more modern, cheerful with their personality. I help them by drawing a project and then making furniture recovery. The result is so different that it looks new and not the same old furniture that they had for so many years.

With this company I also transform a public space for parties in to a real colourful party decoration by painting amazing murals that make us smile and be a child again just from seeing it.

I also had other responsabilities like taking care of transportation service to deliver the costumers goods, reply to emails from both clients and suppliers, insure the database information updates, taking photographic records off all the finished furniture pieces, post processing them, and finally updating the company website.

It is with a big pride that I made more divulgation of this company by giving an idea for a website, which as that magic touch of childhood imagination (*).

I always liked all Arts, from fashion, photography, to architecture, painture, decoration and so many others. My decision of study Arts was almost impossible not to follow. With the University came my exhibitions collective and solo since the beginning 2004 until January 2011. I draw the amazing universe of childhood that attracted me so much, always with a colourful palette. I was drawing my path without knowing how I loved working with children theme, illustrations, mix and matching colours that revealed my future work with decoration and now I'm starting to apply it in Adobe programs. I also took care of all the involved steps, including the production of advertisement media and printables regarding my works.

As a freelancer I also made two children's guide to Portuguese Museums about Ancient Roman Art. I loved to create this project taking photos and work them in Photoshop, imagine how to create an image that gives more information as possible about that subject according with the photos taken and bring my imagination to paper. One of this children's book is on a permanent exhibition in the City Hall in Evora.

I send in attachment my portfolio and you can see my blog with my works: */

By that, I would be very pleased for a chance to apply and develop my knowledge and skills and a golden chance to put all my skills up to the test.

I'll be definitely looking forward to an opportunity like this, and to be part of this team in a near future.
