Hello, there. My name is Gonçalo Torres, and I'm an illustrator. I was born, raised, sacrificed, and accidently brought back to life In Portugal, and one thing I've always cherished is the activity of drawing. I mainly focus on digital illustration, and I like to delve in character and creature design, and generally conjuring up weird stuff to be immortalized on pixelated ink. I guess my style would be best defined as "cartoony and creepy". I also enjoy dabbling in 2D Animation and creative writting. I attended a course on Multimedia and Digital Arts on ESAD, and as a student I got to participate in various coordenated projects, such as Algarve Design Meeting with videomaping (2019), ident for Canal180 (2020), FCT - Inclusive Courts (2021) and DESIGNAgorà with Utopia (2021).
