Biography
Hi,
I'm Luis, a graphic designer/artist living in Germany. My journey until now has been a rollercoaster of experiences, emotions and ideas always with the aspiration to be an Illustrator or Character artist. I was always passionate about drawing (especially the human body) and painting since an early age. Only recently I decided to go all in for my dream and start really learn how to paint and draw properly and consistently. My goal is to change industries and go from graphic designer to illustrator.
I studied in Portugal and finished my Bachelor in "Graphic Design and Computer Graphics" in 2009 where I refined my skills in all things related with Visuals, Design and Creative Thinking. My expertise at the moment is in Graphic Design.
For the past 10 years, I had been a creative in film production companies and digital design companies and at the moment I am trying to find my next workplace that I can call "home" with a team with whom I can also improve personally and professionally.
