I think is time to update this (09-05-2015)
I am a Spanish 21 years old artist who is studying "Animation Cinema" in ESDIP (esdip.com) . I also did a Manga course of several months in the C10 academy (cademiac10.com) . Plus a variety of workshops ( Digital Animation , Editorial Digital Colour)
Nowadays I am planning my artist career , focusing in learning how to become a good Concept Artist/ Digital artist and also working in my composition/storyboarder abilities for my cinema career(working for some animation and real image directors) . I decided to not focus in becoming an animator cause I found I love to paint and to tell stories the most.
I'm a huge lover of Hayao Miyazaki´s work and Japanese animation and culture , but I also respect a lot American and Europan artist (Actual and past ones) so you could say I don't have a real marked style. I tend to work in a more realistic way using inspiration ftom Japanese , American and European art
Fell free to contact me for work , questions , or just to talk ;D
