I'm Tavo Montañez. I was born in 1984. I work from my hometown Aguascalientes, Mexico where I live with my wife and kids. I'm currently work remotely as full-time illustrator and concept artist at Yuga Labs.
As freelance illustrator on the side I work mostly for clients in editorial, but also publishing, advertising and film. My process usually involves drawing with pencil or ink on paper and digital coloring and often by creating fully digital graphics.
