About Me
Carlos Rios (though he's most known as Remy in the art world) was born in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1985, being a Millenial (and proud of that) He grew up reading comic books, watching the afternoon cartoons and anime, and playing in his Nintendo Famicom console and at the Arcades; but most of the time he was doodling and drawing on every sheet of paper he found.He studied Graphic Design and Digital Animation Technician, in the meantime having other types of jobs like working as a Video Editor in the Television industry, though it was not until 2016 where he recovered his old love for drawing, and started working as a freelance in 2017, when at the same time learning self-taught from different sources and improving his skills. Thanks to that, he could dabble between multiple genres, commercial illustrations, and motion graphics animations. He also worked as a full time Concept Artist on some indie video game projects, including mobile and console games.Actually he's still working as a freelance artist on different projects, studying a Mastery degree in Character Design for Video Games and Animation, and taking advanced 2d animation courses with Disney animator Aaron Blaise, to polish his skills and learn even more, because we never stop learning.

About Me
Carlos Ríos (aunque es más conocido como Remy en el mundo del arte) nació en Montevideo, Uruguay en 1985, siendo un Millenial (y orgulloso de ello). Creció leyendo cómics, viendo dibujos animados y anime por las tardes, y jugando en su consola Nintendo Famicom y en los Arcades; pero la mayor parte del tiempo hacía garabatos o dibujaba en cualquier hoja de papel que encontrara.Estudió Diseño Gráfico y Técnico en Animación Digital, mientras tanto realizaba otro tipo de trabajos como Editor de Vídeo en la industria de la Televisión, aunque no fue hasta el 2016 donde recuperó su antigua afición por el dibujo, y comenzó a trabajar como freelance en 2017, cuando al mismo tiempo estudia de forma autodidacta de diferentes fuentes y mejora sus habilidades. Gracias a eso, pudo incursionar entre múltiples géneros, ilustraciones comerciales y animaciones de gráficos en movimiento. También trabajó como artista conceptual a tiempo completo en algunos proyectos de videojuegos independientes, incluidos juegos para dispositivos móviles y consolas.Actualmente sigue trabajando como artista freelance en diferentes proyectos, estudiando una Maestría en Diseño de Personajes para Videojuegos y Animación, y tomando cursos avanzados de animación 2d con el animador de Disney Aaron Blaise, para pulir sus habilidades y aprender aún más, porque nunca dejamos de aprender.
