About

My name is Roman, 24 years old and residing in the centre of the Netherlands, Utrecht.
I started working in 3d since I began studying at the School of Arts. (Faculty of Theatre)
Allthough the study was more built around drama, theatre and writing,
my focus eventually led me to visual arts and character creation.
Since then I've been working (both in contract and freelance) as a character artist and animator.
My ambition is to work for short film and tv, creating daring and original work.
For my personal work I enjoy making illustrations and concepting formats for short films and animation series.
In the end I would like to be making quality entertainment for children, with an artistic edge.
