Storm Literary Agency

Boutique literary agency representing quality literature from exceptional authors and illustrators

First, there was a  teacher who loved books almost as much as she loved little children. Then, there was an artist who loved pirates, almost as much as he loved cats. As it turns out, that artist could also write, and that teacher loved the pirate stories he wrote. And she shared those stories with the children she taught. The children loved the pirate stories; they also loved the cats. They wanted more stories with pirates and cats. They also wanted an adventure. And the stories gave them so many adventures. And that is that: Storm Literary Agency came about because it needed to. The children requested it. And so did the cats. 

Storm Literary Agency welcomes submissions from unique and talented authors and illustrators, those who are not afraid to embrace their capacity to teach, to entertain, to engage and to honor people, young and old, who hopefully, will be changed by the work represented here.

 

Inês Martins is an illustrator from sunny Portugal. She received her Bachelor of Visual Arts in Lisbon, 2021. Ever since a young age she has been story telling with her illustrations, finding inspiration by
exploring nature and all the tiny creatures found there. Inês enjoys experimenting with textures and colors to create playful pieces. She especially loves drawing humorous narratives with endearing and friendly animals. Her favorite subjects to illustrate are friendship, family love, animal curiosities and environmental protection.
She works in her small studio room surrounded by books and her pet turtle and guinea pigs, where she spends her days creating whimsical illustrations for picture books and for products she handmakes and sells in her small shop and local art markets.
Inês has illustrated a few books published in Portugal and is looking forward to expand her work outside of her small country.
