Hello!

Thanks for checking out my portfolio. I work  as an Art Director for animation, as well as a Designer, Colorscriptor, and Background painter. Most recently i Art Directed the 2D feature “Julián” at Cartoon Saloon, which is to be released in 2026. Right now i am art directing a preschool show at Cartoon Saloon.

I graduated from The Animation workshop in 2019 and have been with Cartoon Saloon since then. I worked on Wolfwalkers as a final Line Artist, drawing the backgrounds traditionally with pencils and inks. Since then I joined My Fathers Dragon, first as a Location designer and Scene Illustrator in preproduction, and then as Assistant Art Director for the production. after that ive been busy with Julián from start till finish

In my work I love to do color,  experiment with different artstyles and writing styleguides. I can be very analytical and i love discussing and communicating how things do or do not work and why. Working closely with other people is very important to me, and being surrounded by other artists fuels my creativity.

In my personal work I also do a lot of traditional media. i find that understanding traditional media makes you better at working digitally too. For the past 7 years ive done a lot of plein air painting in my free time, and i love ther challenge it brings to create something unpremeditated in a short timeframe and without any distractions.

Besides painting I spend my freetime sewing, gardening, building miniatures, silversmithing and anything else creative i can get my hands on… I want to learn how to make everything. Wish me luck!
