ABOUT ME

I am a freelance illustrator, 2D animator, caricaturist, and cartoonist since 2002.
I have had all kinds of clients: advertising, tv, marketing, magazines, cosmetics, publishing, newspapers, theater, and International conventions. I’ve worked life on TV, drawing on camera, given conferences about my work, been interviewed in newspapers, radio and TV... 

I am very creative at coming up with humorous concepts and I always love to use humor as a communication vehicle. I am also a responsible worker, willing to contribute with my skills to any company, with a variety of art styles and longtime experience in illustration, cartooning, and 2D animation.

In the past, I've worked for Disney Europe, ESPN, TESCO, IBM, Sony, International Barcelona Comicon, Nickelodeon (Dora the Explorer), BBC (Gory Games), FOCUS, Unilever, Magic Box Int., Ray Villafane Studios, Minoria Absoluta, Santillana Editorial (School Books), etc... 

I've published weekly caricatures on Diari ARA (Catalan newspaper, 11 years) and worked in the most popular humor magazine in Spain: El Jueves (3 years). I'm also polishing my skills in organic 3D Modeling and 3D printing, developing my own line of toy figures.
