I build cinematic 2D environments through 2.5D workflows, architectural design, and digital painting.
ColombiaWhat I'm looking for
I'm developing 2D environments as a background artist and visual development artist, using 2.5D workflows that move from 3D blockouts to final paint-overs.
My work focuses on architectural environments, vehicles, and botanical elements, supported by composition, camera optics, light behavior, perspective, volumetry, and color theory.
Through my Digital Art for Film and Video Games training at Academy by Polygonus, I've contributed to concept art and 3D character and environment modeling, including hand-painted textures.
I've also spent 10 years as an illustrator and tattoo artist, bringing traditional drawing, client consultation, clear communication, and attention to detail into my digital art practice.
