Thanks to my credo:
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life"
and with my 20+ years experience both in web and print and also in advertising and freelance art illustration, I feel comfortable navigating between the art and business world.
I'm open to collaborate and willing to interact with other clients from the globe.
Please feel free to contact me: opera78@me.com
