About

Hello there! My name is Mario although on the net I am also known as Aégis. I work as a freelance Illustrator and Art Director, although I do some photography sessions from time to time. Actually, I mainly work creating CD album covers/packagings.

I'm moved by the surreal and oniric world. My leitmotif is to find the colors in grotesque visuals, and tint them with irony. I'm attached to the human emotion and that's what I try to portray.

I am fully available for freelancing, so don't be shy if you've got any artistic needs (:
