Figurative fine artist and 3D artist based in Portugal

One big existential crisis I’ve encountered, and see a lot of people struggling with, is the ability to merge two or more different interests together into coexisting work. After seeing what a lot of the Tribe members or THU speakers do, especially someone like, for example, Scott Eaton, Alex Oliver or Raphael Lacoste and watching them merge together their passion for both drawing, digital sculpture/painting and more technical digital production techniques, made me come to terms with what I really enjoy doing and the fact that I don’t need to sacrifice one of my passions in pursuit of the other. I guess that is another big message of THU, “to find your inner child” and, like any child, just do whatever you’re really passionate about and eventually you’ll find that cathartic feeling of being where you belong.
