About

Every project sets out to tell a story, This story is made up of a cast of characters, Locations, and objects that tell it.
The goal is to evoke emotions in the people experiencing it and make the story impactful and enjoyable.
Taking and developing these ideas: Adjusting them to fit the project and its target audience is my passion.

My skillset is founded in traditional drawing, Watercoloring, digital drawing, and painting in photoshop. 3D Pipeline in Maya, Sculpting in Zbrush (Texturing in Keyshot / Mari, Rendering in Arnold, Octane and Keyshot). Combining these tools I visualize stories and the characters and locations that play key roles in it!
My fascination for communicating ideas in projects lead me to write a thesis about it as a part of my university education: https://firestartermagazine.com/articles/29-thesis-by-adrian-birkeland
