Little Update :)

3 min read

Hello!

Just a little update on my life! Since graduating I got the opportunity to work on a VFX company and worked on several movies as a Compositor (Gangster Squad, Beautiful Creatures, After Earth, The Conjuring and Motel).

Then on the beginning of this year I changed companies and got to work on titles such as Iron Man 3, Star Trek 2, Pacific Rim, RIPD, The Wolverine, Percy Jackson 2 and more.

I couldn't be any happier than this! Well, of course I could, my happiness just has been progressively increasing. I have to admit I am proud of myself, I could never have imagined one day I would be living in Hollywood and working on major Feature Films!

Point being: Do never give up on your dreams! Sounds silly, but if you do try hard enough, I am sure you will be able to at least get closer and closer to accomplish them! Quitters never win!

I was just a girl that enjoyed drawing and painting and made that my career, and so can you!

That's it for now, I am about to go home for vacation (is going to be cold in brazil, I loooove it!).

Oh yeah, I am thinking of starting taking requests for a while, if any of you are interested, just send me a note! No charges as long as it is fanart!

See ya next time

Hi guys, first of all I'm so sorry for not updating here in a while

Haha my live is kinda crazy with university and all, but hopefully I'll put something new here, maybe in 3D o/
But yeah, Full Sail has some crazy hours, this month for example i have classes from 5pm to 1am xD anyway i'm really liking it ^^

Hmm I guess that is it, I'll try to get my old notebook here by the end of the year so i can get the images i was working on xD

Cya

Have a good day ;D

My 18th B-DAY - ORLY? =O

2 min read

It fells so good to be chasing my dream, I'll make all of this worth (hear that mom and dad? *_*), It's hard to believe that in less than a month I'll be entering Full Sail University as a student x3
I can't say I won't miss Brazil, because I will for sure... our food, my parents, my amazing friends, our ugly people... I know they will miss me too HAHA

Anyway I have an almost finished drawing in my hard drive, I'll do my best to upload it late today, if not I'm sorry, but then I'll upload it only when I arrive at the US and get my mac >.<

HAPPY B-DAY TO ME AND TO EVERYONE WHO WAS BORN IN THIS AMAZING DAY <3
