A cover illustration created for the book Bestiário Insólito, developed through a collage-based approach using cut paper and colored cardstock to build a tactile and handcrafted visual identity.

The process focused on assembling geometric shapes and layered textures to construct one of the book’s iconic creatures, offering a visual preview of the unusual beings featured within the narrative. The cut-and-paste technique reinforces a playful yet slightly eerie tone, balancing simplicity with expressive character design.

Through this analog construction, the final composition highlights materiality, visible edges, and overlapping forms. The result functions as both a striking cover image and an introduction to the strange and imaginative universe explored inside the book.
