Biography
Hello, I'm a brazilian concept artist and illustrator. I have been working for almost ten years in visual develpment for advertising campaigns, and almost five years as an illustrator on a number of comic books for independent publishers in the USA, such as Scout Comics and Ten31 Publishing.
With Scout Comics alone I've already developed two sucessful long-term projects: one is a comic book called "The Mall" and the other is a graphic novel called "Unikorn". Both projects have been optioned to become either a tv show or movie (Unikorn in special is being produced into a movie by Armory Films).
My main interests include mecha anime, model buiding, technical design illustrations, and also woodworking. Basically anything that involves puzzles and building things with my own hands. I would love to expand the horizons of my work, and I am eager to embrace new challenges! Please feel free to check my online portfolio, and also to contact me if you want to know more about me or my work.
