Hi, my name is Sofia Matos and I’ve been working on fictional stories and fantasy projects ever since 2010. To create the worldbuilding of fantasy, futuristic, mythological or abstract stories and make them and its characters come to life, is what truly drives my life.

I’m a senior illustrator that is currently unemployed due to mental health issues, anxiety, scoliosis and adenomyosis. I struggle everyday to get out of bed, and every step I take is measured by the level of pain I’m in. This limits my ability to be productive, and most of the time, no matter how many great projects I have, I just can’t seem to be able to motivate myself to do it. I had bad luck in the last professional years, dealing with very toxic environments, which drained me to the core, and even thought I left sometime ago, it still terrifies me to find a knew job… Not only I am afraid of getting into a bad environment again, but most of all, I am afraid of myself… afraid I might make the same mistakes, trust the wrong people, work myself until I can’t anymore, and put the job or the need of others before me or my health.

For anyone that wishes to support me or my projects, if you wish to see more, you can buy me a coffee and help me make these projects and illustrations come to light. That will motivate me a lot and help me not lose my creativity.

I will be sharing all I have done in the last 2 years, including projects I had previously decided to only share them once they were finished. That seems to be an impossible journey for me right now, so I just wish to share.

Stories are meant to be shared. I have currently 2 major projects I am working on:

Project “0 (zero)” & Project “Croco”

The content that is being developed are layouts, parts of dialogues or scripts, character designs, concept studies for objects, landscapes, animation or other, story discussions, research, chronologies and family trees.

These are the platforms I will me using where you can find more stuff I'm working on:
