Eden Nelson Brandao Soares
is a highly skilled and accomplished Cape Verdean artist with expertise in various domains such as illustration, mural painting, graphic design, and a deep appreciation for human connection. Born on March 24, 1972, in the picturesque city of Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Eden's family relocated to Portugal while he was an infant, and subsequently settled in the United States when he turned four.
From an early age, Eden exhibited exceptional creativity, which later led him to discover the art of graffiti, a new form of design that captivated his imagination. Fueling his passion for design, he pursued Drafting during his junior high school years, where he honed his technical and meticulous skills, ultimately guiding him toward the craft of architectural design. After completing his high school education, Eden made the decision to further his studies at the renowned Hall Institute of Technology in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, specializing in Drafting Technology and Computer-Aided Design, and graduating with distinction.
At the age of 21, Eden acquired his inaugural computer, dedicating himself to mastering the fundamental concepts of Photoshop within a span of one month. These accomplishments facilitated his admission to Mount Ida College in Newton Centre, Boston, where he undertook further endeavors to refine his aptitude in computer design.
Over the years, Eden has maintained an unwavering commitment to the field of Graphic Design, which has presented him with remarkable prospects, including participation in diverse committee design boards both within the United States and internationally. His responsibilities entail the design, marketing, and promotion of products, services, and events while fostering open channels of communication for aiding clients in matters of branding and consulting.
Eden Soares is an individual who possesses deep compassion and commitment toward individuals who are less fortunate. In the year 2013, he made a conscious decision to embark on a transformative journey by visiting an Orphanage located in the Cape Verde Islands, accompanied by fellow members of the esteemed Cape Verdean Student Association from the renowned University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. During his visit, Eden generously contributed his professional design expertise towards the welfare and betterment of these children, while the members of the CVSA selflessly donated vital educational, medical, and hygiene resources. Eden dedicated his valuable time to the creation of murals and designs specifically tailored for the baby room, girls' bedroom, boys' bedroom, and the designated area for celebrating birthdays. Additionally, he personally crafted and hand-painted the distinctive logo and business name, adorning the entrance of this honorable establishment.
In 2015, Eden sought to sustain his compassionate connection with these young souls by revisiting the same Orphanage, further deepening the bond he shares with these resilient individuals. During this return visit, Eden thoughtfully bestowed individually wrapped gifts upon his cherished young friends, symbolically representing his enduring love and support for their well-being.
