Summary
♥ Who am I ♥
I am an energetic and hard-working 2D artist who loves to create characters and their world, and visualize their meaning of life. I have experience in the video game industry for 2 - 3 years, working with different types of work such as concept art, UI design, icon design. I also have experience from my freelance work (7+ years). Drawing and painting have always been my passion, the same goes for video games! I enjoy reading, drawing, making comics, playing games, and drinking loads of tea. At the moment I'm looking for full-time/part-time work!
I am available for freelance work and character design commissions. Contact me for more information.
