# About me

--------------
BIOGRAPHY
--------------
September 13, 1983 - Present - Mechanical Engineer and Plastic Artist.

Born and raised in San José Tetecuintla, former Hacienda in Hidalgo, México. While spending his childhood in the country side, his parents provided him the opportunity of exploring Plastic Arts in several facets.

The first approach was to Origami, he demonstrated a natural ability and interest for this ancient Asian craftsmanship. At the age of 5, before knowing how to read; he was capable of diagram interpretation and art-piece reproduction. This was his first written language.

With time, Francisco showed interest in drawing and painting. The primary motivation was to understand and capture the nature of crystals in his art. He admires the beauty of the optical phenomena present in these materials – transparency, Fresnel reflections, refractions and caustics. Francisco used to play games with light and crystals, reason for which he calls himself Champion of the Light (campeonLuz).

Moreover, Francisco was introduced to the Mechanical Engineering world by his father. This discipline was a crossroad that empowered him to combine the best of two worlds, Science and Art. Inspired by the Japanese Macross Anime series, Francisco understood that aircraft development and design is gallant but challenging – making of him to excel his logical and artistic skills to dedicate his professional career to the Aerospace Industry.

Nowadays Francisco makes use of his free time to explore the foundations of human expression and imagination by means of the sculpture and digital painting.

I really respect 3D artists that pursue a photorealistic touch on beautiful women renders. I am aware of the difficulty.
Please Keep on those great and sexy renders!

I have several women sculpture and robot renders, what do you think about those?

Angels are majestic. You captured pretty well this feeling!
Thought my life I have had a special fixation with angels, probably because they are the next step of our spiritual evolution.

What do you think about my Angela?

I've been very busy with other things lately, and sorry I missed your comment 'till now. But thanks anyway.

I don't know about angels being the next step, and looking at your Angela, "spiritual: isn't the first thought in my mind But: wow! I like her very much!

Amigo. Gracias por la información.

Fíjate que estoy un poco frustrado, he buscado por muchos grupos buscando talento. A decir verdad no he encontrado mucho. La mayoría de las obras son de baja calidad o de temas intrascendentes...
