Bio

I was born in Athens and from an early age I remember myself drawing, love, passion, worship all this led me to follow it as a profession. My studies in Graphic Design and illustration began in Akto (Middlesex University) where i spent 4 wonderful creative years that i will always remember with nostalgia. For 3 years now i am working as an illustrator for book publishers – magazines and fantasy board and card games.

Also I’m an award-winning artist from the professional cg sites cghub, Fantasyana, and I was featured artist
in Imagine Fx magazine, Amazing Events, Cg art of China and at Cg society front page. Also I do tutorials for Photoshop Digital Painting Magazine, Amazing Events Magazine and various Cg sites. Also I had worked on Talisman Frostmarch Expansion for Fantasy Flight Games.

For this time I’m working as a freelancer artist and as a teacher of painting for kids in some artistic faculty in Athens.

My ambitions for the future are great I would like to get involved with films and Direction. Also I’m a writer and I’m trying to finish my story-book, I have set high goals and want to succeed, I believe with determination, love, passion and perseverance all dreams come true.
