Hello!
My name is Jan, and I specialise as a CG Artist for Animation and Games. I am from Cardiff, Wales.
From a very early age I exhibited a passion and aptitude for drawing and sketching. My earliest vivid memories as a child were drawing wherever, however I can with whatever tools I had at the moment as my parents weren't the most well off back then. It was this spontaneity and grit to create combined with the innate work ethic, driven nature to succeed shown by my parents that has forged me to become a imaginative, efficient and resourceful individual. However, this passion was sidelined during my teenage years as my friend ship groups and interests grew towards the path of computing, video games and the sciences but I found out this was not for me as though it was interesting I found it personally creatively stunting on several occasions.
I was then at a crossroads when choosing a course to do as I was too artsy for Computer Science and my past Computing experience had made it hard for me to relate to Fine Arts. It was only in Computer Animation that I had found a course that marries both disciplines as well as giving me almost complete creative freedom to choose and excel in what I want to do. It was in this course that I had crafted projects which I am excited to share with you.
