Art Director - Creative Retoucher - Digital Artist
Retouching - CGI - Photo-manipulation - llustration - Photography - Content Creation
I make any kind of high-quality image
for the advertising and entertainment industries,
working with photography, digital retouching, mate painting
and illustration, from a simple photo cosmetic retouching,
to the complete realization of a first brand
campaign by full photo-manipulation.
Always waiting for new challenges, open to any kind of project,
trying to learn more in any of them, and always trying to raise the level,
relying on the experience of 11 years as Art Director in some
of the largest advertising agencies of my country, and ten years
working professionally as a creative retoucher.
