Tools
In 2016, I bought a Surface Pro 2 to make some vector art in Adobe Illustrator.
I bought a Cintiq 13″ and used it for 3 years, and now I have a Cintiq 22″ and it’s the love of my life.
I used Adobe Photoshop for a long time, but I’ve now become a big fan of Clip Studio Paint. Affordable, great, very artist-oriented!
In 2018 I also bought an iPad 5th generation with an Apple Pen. I use Procreate with it, and mostly use it when I am out of my home or while slouching on my couch.
Career
I’ve studied Multimedia in College, where I learned to use a whole arsenal of software for video, programming, design, etc. When done with my studies, I’ve worked as a web programmer. In 2016, I connected with one of my old passion: drawing.
Since then, I haven’t stopped learning and improving in my drawing, mostly by myself and with the help of all those wonderful artists on the internet who share what they do.
As of 2018, I will be starting animation classes at Cégep du Vieux Montréal.
In 2021, I started working as a Technical Artist for Chasing Rats Games.
