I should really write a new bio.
I am a young one. To be an artist, born on 1994 I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. My love for digital art came with a videogame "Stalker - Shadow of Chernobyl" with this game I started created some minor texture mod and it came necessary to use photoshop with the software I started knowing digital art tecniques and with a Bamboo Fun I pick up digital drawing.
After a bunch of years with my skill slowly improving and thanks to my parents effort I received a Intuos4 as birthday present and since then my skill has improved a lot.
Blog:
[link]I now do various works mainly creating power point presentation and word files but sometimes I am asked to draw stuff. Since I am still a student I do not work full time but I will really love to become a movie/games concept artist but with these works I manage to get by with most of my life.
That is more or less the overview of who I am and what I do.
I am available for commission and works just send me a pm if you are interested in it.
