This website features some of my latest works, most of them are digital paintings that I’ve selected aiming game art opportunities in the entertainment industry. I’ve used Photoshop for the paintings and Maya for the Mutant Squid. My main goal when making characters is to empower them with unique attributes, which are shaped by their function as part of the character and the role of the character inside the context it’s in.

I’ve been working with illustration and design for several years now, mostly for advertising but my love for character creation, concept art, video games and storytelling led me to the entertainment industry and ultimately Los Angeles. Zombies, fantasy, sci-fi, horror and music are some of my favorite references and inspiration.
