About

Hi, I’m Tomas Octavio Galban Hernandez, a Venezuelan illustrator and 2D animator based in Caracas. I specialize in graphic design, vector illustration, and animation for advertising and media projects, with formal training in social communication and design. I enjoy turning ideas into vivid visuals and storytelling, and I’ve pursued ongoing learning in journalism, voiceover, and language skills to broaden how I communicate through art.

Over the years I’ve collaborated with studios and broadcasters, creating assets for Wow Chimp LLC and Treetop Trademarketing, and contributing to projects across government and media organizations. I’m passionate about collaborating with teams to craft clear visuals and engaging experiences, from concept to final polish, and I’m always looking for new opportunities to grow as an artist and storyteller.
