Hi there, I’m David Arroyo — a visual storyteller specializing in story art, concept design, and cinematic illustration. My work is rooted in narrative: crafting compelling worlds, developing characters, and translating ideas into visuals that feel alive, purposeful, and emotionally grounded. While my foundation lies in storyboarding for film and animation, my creative focus has expanded into concept art and high-end illustration, allowing me to approach projects from both a narrative and visual development perspective. Whether it’s designing a world, shaping a scene, or capturing a key moment, I aim to create work that serves the story first. At the heart of my personal work is RESET — an original sci-fi universe I’m actively developing across multiple formats, including narrative writing, illustration, and future comic releases. This project represents my long-term vision: building a fully realized IP that blends storytelling, philosophy, and cinematic visuals into a cohesive experience. Alongside my professional and personal work, I’ve spent over seven years teaching concept art at Syntra AB — an educational facility in Belgium. Guiding and mentoring aspiring artists to become the future of this creative industry.
