I'm an experienced 2D artist, I have mainly worked in feature animation films in Europe as Production Designer, Visual Development Artist, Matte Painter, Set Designer, Concept Artist and 2D Layout Artist. I illustrated front covers of sci-fi/fantasy novels. To create universes, to imagine situations and to paint environments is my passion. I am dedicated to achieving strong visions in believable imaginary worlds for the big screen. I am always up for new challenging projects and to push the boundaries even further.
