Medium: Digital illustration (Clip Studio Paint) 
A mockup poster of my original characters. This artwork is an exploration of dynamic poses and character design, as well as experimenting with texture adding collage-like elements to an art piece.

At the moment I am working on developing my comic book with original characters which I plan to realize as animated series. I practice creating mockup posters to visualise how they would look like in production. The story takes place in the future but with an early 2000s aesthetic so I choose colour schemes and artistic techiques such as heavy usage of fisheye-like perspective to match the art tendencies popular at the time.

Medium: Digital illustration( Clip Studio Paint) 
Versions of my personal artwork to explore conveying the mood of the image through colour, lighting and shading.

To experiment with changing the mood of an art piece, I often make several versions of one artwork with different lighting and shading or colour schemes to portray different and sometimes opposite moods using the same setting.

Medium: Mixed media (Digital illustration/Photography) 
A personal artwork to experiment with different textures by mixing art media and to explore the use of shape and colour in character design.

Photography is another art medium I enjoy. I like using mixed media in my art, clashing the textures and incorporating drawn characters into realistic background.
