Summary
I'm the former Substance library Art Director at Textures.com, providing supervision and mentoring artists, creating procedural textures and maintaining the pipeline.
Professionally, I focus on large scale environments and procedural techniques, while spending my spare time studying my other passions such as FX, matte painting and programming.
I love everything that looks complex and large scale, with heavy texturing work and a slightly stylized vibe.
