    paper Animated Series Papoupi

    I created detailed background illustrations for an animated series called Papoupi, crafting environments that set the tone and atmosphere for each scene. Using layered composition, color harmony, and perspective, I designed immersive, stylized settings that support the storytelling and characters.

    If you’re looking for backgrounds that bring your animated world to life — whether for TV, web series, or games — I’d love to help build your visual universe.

    paper Children's Day Concert for the National Symphony Orchestra

    I created a series of illustrations for the National Symphony Orchestra of Colombia as part of a special Children’s Day concert. Several stories were illustrated and projected live during the performance, and “Sanson” was one of them.

    For this project, I developed expressive characters and key scenes to enhance the musical narrative, creating visuals that helped children connect with the story through color, emotion, and storytelling.

    If you need illustrations for concerts, storytelling, or multimedia performances, I’d be happy to bring your project to life.
