About

2D visual development artist and illustrator based in Uruguay, focused on environment design, concept art, character exploration and visual storytelling. I enjoy turning ideas and narratives into stylized worlds through composition, atmosphere, color and expressive design.

I have experience creating visual assets, cover artwork and short animations for independent artists, as well as developing original animation and game projects from concept to pre-production. I primarily work with Photoshop, After Effects and Aseprite, and I’m comfortable adapting to different visual styles and project needs.

I’m currently open to remote freelance and contract work in illustration, visual development, environment design and 2D art.
