Hi! I'm Mireia, a Character and Prop designer from Barcelona :)

Biography

All my life, character design has been my passion, I always found very interesting playing with the expressions, poses, shapes and all the little details that make a character great. That’s why I studied Animation and Illustration in Barcelona, and then, Animation & Concept Art in Vancouver Film School. Since I graduated, I've been working as freelance and on-site 2D Artist for different game and animation companies, designing and animating characters and props, as well as illustrating or storyboarding. Currently, I’m working as a Prop & Character Designer for a TV Series in Mago Productions, in Barcelona. My goal is to keep developing my career as a character designer in the Animation industry while participating in inspiring projects.
