My name is Fábio M. Silva and I am a 23 year old artist who lives in Portugal. I've had a passion for CG ever since I first discovered it while watching the making of Jurassic Park. Since that day, Ive tried to dive in into this fascinating world of computer graphics, and so far, it has been a very enjoyable ride.
