My artistic adventure spans across continents – from Dortmund to Lagos, Milan to London – my journey into the enchanting world of art ignited during my early years. Picture a curious kid, tirelessly scribbling on every available surface, often losing myself in the tranquility of empty rooms, my imagination running wild. Even in high school, my love for illustration shone brightly, garnering me victories in competitions and even a role at my professor’s business. But that was just the beginning. I craved more. Graphic design beckoned, and I heeded its call. Armed with determination and an internet connection, I taught myself the intricacies of Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects through countless online tutorials. The hard work was my canvas, and the outcome? I stand amidst the fruits of my labor, proud and fulfilled, witnessing my passion evolve into remarkable creations. The journey, with its twists and turns, has led me to this point of artistic fulfillment, and I can’t wait to see what’s next on this creative path.
