I started out as a mechanical engineer, working on integrating 3D printing into prosthetics. As a child, I was not exposed to concept art because I grew up in a country with fewer opportunities. But I used to draw while reading newspapers and looking at illustrations in books. But, until recently, I had taken art more seriously, and I was able to improve my skills with the help of some online classes from brainstorm, vision-art, and cg spectrum. I learned a lot from those classes and hope to learn even more in the future. I'm particularly intrigued by the creature design.
