I am a 2D/3D animator and illustrator with more than twenty years of experience in animation, visual storytelling, and art. Throughout my career, I have worked on a wide range of projects – from painterly animation for feature films to commercial advertising, game visuals, and illustrated books for children. I have illustrated six children’s books, created storyboards for advertising agencies, and worked on the painterly animated film Kaimiečiai, where I contributed to the hand-painted animation process. I have also taught 3D animation, rigging, and rendering at Vilnius College of Technologies and Design, which gave me a deep understanding of both the creative and technical sides of animation. This experience strengthened my communication skills, teamwork, and ability to solve artistic and technical challenges efficiently. I work with TVPaint, Toon Boom Harmony, Maya, Photoshop, and other animation and illustration tools. I am comfortable creating both hand-drawn 2D animation and 3D animation. I am especially drawn to projects that combine artistic sensitivity with technical precision – these are the areas where I feel strongest and most inspired.
