I realized I wanted to work in the creative industries during one of my classes while I was enrolled in Law School. It wasn't long before I dropped out. Before deciding to focus on illustration full time, I worked as a blendshape artist in a video game company.

I always had the passion of digital art since when i was child.

I started to want to work in media creation before joining in Academy of Beaty Art and meantime i relized to work in 3D sector .

I started learning 3D modeling in 2014. I fell in love with it and stuck with it ever since.

During my time in high school, I stumbled upon my passion for the creative industries, particularly when I started learning how to create 3D models using Blender. Engaging in 3D modeling never felt like work; rather, it provided me with profound satisfaction.

Animation has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I've liked seeing these new worlds and realised I can create them. Games came secondly in my life and also took part in that Vision.

When I was in my second year of middle school, I knew I had a keen interest in drawing and video games. It wasn't until a close friend of mine admired my work that made me realized I wanted to head towards the creative industry.

I've always been passionate in arts, design, videogames and creative expression since my childhood. I attended the Academy of Fine Arts, course of Multimedia design (graduation 2015), and I'm a 31 y/o graphic designer with 6+ years of work experience, as an employee and as a freelancer too. I'm exploring new creative paths for my career development, training my drawing and illustration skills.

I've always known i will be working in creative industries when the time came, I was simply unsure in which direction my creativity will take me. I found my path while studying at The academy of fine arts. I'm currently finishing my studies and getting a diploma in animated film, but while learning and exploring 3D mostly on my own, I became completely drawn to environment art and immediately known that is the career i will be fulfilled in as an artist.

As a teenager. Then I've study at the art school what - paradoxically - made me loose focus on what I really want to do. Years later I found out that sci-fi and fantasy art is what I like the most.

I realized that in high school.

A few years ago , when I made some poor decision that made me realised that I really want to pursue art , it was something that I could not live without.

3 years ago in high school

In middle-school, when I heard about car design

I didn't have an "aha" moment. I liked doodling and making stuff since I was little and it’s just stuck with me till now. I love working with music!

I can find one single moment when deep in thoughts as a young teenager I said to myself "Oh, crap I really have a need to create things. I need to leave my village and go for it". I started from early art education in high school of art, then on the academy of fine arts I did choose animation as my specialisation and that's where I discovered and got fascinated by computer graphics environment and 3D computer animation particularly.

I got excited about art and design after watching amazing portfolios online. That started at the end of my primary school.
