Posters of Portuguese coast

Born in Costa da Caparica, Mathis follows the coast Thaïs knows every day: sun, surf, bridges, fishermen and the quiet moments worth keeping around.

Hand-drawn in Costa da Caparica

Portugal surf art with a real coastline behind it

MATHIS Gallery creates hand-drawn posters, framed prints and mugs inspired by the Atlantic side of Portugal. Each illustration starts with Thais' view of the coast: Ericeira waves, Costa da Caparica beach life, Cascais sailing boats and Lisbon's Ponte 25 de Abril in warm evening light.

Four coasts

Shop by location

Each illustration is drawn from a specific place on the Portuguese coast.

The collection is organised by place so you can browse by memory, trip or favourite stretch of coast: Ericeira for surf heritage, Costa da Caparica for beach culture near Lisbon, Cascais for sailing and Lisbon for the bridge that defines the city skyline. All artwork is original, drawn by Thais and produced on quality materials for shipping in Portugal and internationally.

The artist

Hi, I'm Thaïs

My journey begins in Costa da Caparica, Portugal. The work signed Mathis comes from that place, from the light, the surf and the feeling of the coast around me.

Each piece is drawn from a retro soul, sun-washed and grounded in the now.
