Overview
I'm an illustrator and concept-artist, looking for new opportunities to network and to offer my services to clients in the industry. I am experienced in sketching, drawing, painting (traditionally and digitally), matte painting and coloration. Although I graduated as a communication designer in 2008, I have focussed my skills on illustration and concept design (character creation, environments and scenery for different media such as video games, books and more). I am always open for negotiation and learning quickly in order to provide solutions for the client's projects. If there are any questions please contact me and I will respond as quickly as I possibly can.
