About Me

Hi there!
Im a artist and a dreamer, I work as an Illustrator (I draw using digital and fisical medias) Im 23 years old and I think life its an adventure, my dream is to make a living of what I love the most (thats illustrating/drawing and well I have reached that dreamin at certain level ^^) and travelling around the world incresing my skills as an artist. I think to travel, to know other persons, to have diferent experiences and most improtant to help and serve other using my skills its the most perfect form of inspiration for my art. That why im so passionate about this, cause I want to help, travel, experience and have a lot of stories to represent in my art so then I can inspire other persons to do what they love the most, to do that thing they want but they have fear to do.I love animals, sports, I love dancing Salsa, Bachata, even street dance. I really like photography (its a complement for illustration) I love to have a mastermind philosophy, to meditate, to know myself and be a better person every day. I'm an observer, the little details of the daily living are the most beautiful thing for me, a sunset, a refreshing air and all what this world has to offer to us.
I work as an idependat,making different commissions to clients all around the world and also localy ofr thifferent king of arts. (Tattoo design, artist illustration, editorial, art for video games and animations.) I also teach in digital arts school the area of sketching and digital painting.
