About Me

Member Since 2013 | Views: 796

I have been passionate about art from a very young age, and knew from the get go about what I wanted to do since I started drawing. I am a recent graduate from the Art Institute of Seattle graduated with bachelors in fine arts experienced in 2D and 3D animation and character modeling.

I offer experience in character modeling and animation, both 3D and 2D. My models are created for the soul purpose of animation making the meshes deformable in the ways that are needed.

I humbly thank you for considering offering me a position at your company and I hope to hear back from you via email. My email can be found here on my website: http://www.matthewtorresart.com/
