Júlio Dolbeth was born in Angola in 1973. Presently, he lives and works in Porto, Portugal. Having a degree in Communication Design, from the Fine Arts School of Porto, and a Master in Multimedia Art, he is currently pursuing a PhD in Illustration. He is a co-founder of “Dama Aflita”, a cultural association and Art Gallery dedicated to illustration and drawing in Porto.

Júlio Dolbeth likes to draw random faces, friends faces, some made-up faces, sometimes a lumberjack, sometimes a snow white lots of times until she comes perfect. Once in a while he invents plants, most of the times a log, sometimes a skull trying to be proportional. Most of the drawings are in his head, many of them in his sketchbook, some of them are hanging on a wall, a few of them are published and part them are a collectable in some friend´s warehouse.
