Hello! My name is Sabrina and I am the creative soul behind Astra de la Crème. I am a passionate and innovative artist and illustrator and recently decided to dive in the pattern designer world. I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1985 and based in the Europe since 2009, I graduated from Middlesex University with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 2018. 

My journey as a creative entrepreneur officially started in 2010 despite being drawing since a young girl. My career has allowed me to accomplish so many dreams and exhibit across the world as well as create a solid career as an artist. 

With a dedication to artistic excellence and an insatiable wanderlust, I move around this world in search of inspiration, continually evolving my work and life. My journey as an artist has taught me a lot and I am so excited to bring this expertise to my new path as a surface & pattern designer. My work explores vibrant imagery depicting surreal patterns, geometry & natural elements reflecting the vibrant and ever-changing landscapes I explore, my own experiences in this world and my Brazilian heritage.

Each piece I create is a testament of what I witness and feel, as well as my own vibrant cultural heritage. My pieces are very focused by narrative and story-telling is one of my most recognised qualities as a creator. Known for my bold use of colour, intricate patterns, and a blend of digital elements and hand precision, my work brings a touch of global flair and sophistication to any space.
