Summary
I'm a 3D / 2D environment and prop artist from Athens, Greece. My art style follows themes of anything stylized and cozy. I love low poly 3D and hand painted textures but I also have great experience in 3D voxel modeling and pixel art! I enjoy narrative and game design and on my spare time, I publish fantasy art and tabletop adventures for D&D 5th Edition.
I run my own small indie studio publishing several projects, so I inevitably take on multiple roles ranging from bookkeeping, to creative and art director, to manager, to marketing and publishing, and even social media management. From the beginning of my career, wearing multiple hats in the indie industry has lead me to develop and publish games successfully.
