Biography
Digital painter, pixel artist, and comic book author from São Paulo.
I started my career as a graphic designer and illustrator for a magazine publisher in Brazil, where I worked for 8 years (2004-2012) before switching to a lead artist role at a mobile games company until 2015 when I started working exclusively as freelancer for clients all over the world.
In 2015 a project I worked on as a pixel animator called Science Kombat became an internet hit. Since then, I've made pixel art animations and illustrations for games, ads, social media, publishing, etc.
I'm also a comic book author, with 7 published titles in Brazil, with the first being published in the USA in 2022.
