Venezuela
I was born in Caracas, Venezuela in 1977. I became aware about art after I was 16 years old and went to pursue a career in the comic book field where I received a degree in cartooning at the Lopez & Acosta Cartooning School in Caracas in 1997.
I work predominantly in the medium of digital painting and my most notable interests being comics, cartoons, animation and games. In my 15 years of experience as a freelance artist i have worked for many companies creating storyboards, Children's book illustrations, animated shorts, comics, sketch cards and concept art for advertisement.
I love creating in any form of art as I'm passionate about the creative aspect of things though my biggest aspiration is working in the comic book industry as a cover artist.
