About Harriet Evans
Harriet Evans works in children's publishing and spends her days researching cool animal facts, imagining awesome adventures and drinking copious amounts of tea. Goncalo was born in Lisbon. He studied architecture and moved to London, where he worked for a few years. Illustration was his first love though, and once back in Lisbon he left architecture and started work as a freelance illustrator. Geometry did find a way to seep back in, providing a framework for his concepts, strong colours and textures.
