Noely Tovar
3D Generalist
Illustrator
Character Designer
Level Designer
In her childhood, Noely inherited her mother's artistic passion and no flat surface was ever safe from her crayons. Growing up with Disney and Fantasy movies, Noely loved drawing what she saw on screen and tried to bring her creations to life.
Noely continues her education in Game Design and Animation at Keiser University and in the prospects of developing her own game. She is estimated to graduate in October 2024.
She draws inspiration from her favorite movies, games and books. All ranging from sparkling fairies to dark horror. There is always beauty in the darkness, that's where the stars shine brightest. Outside of her work, you can find her at Barnes and Noble, playing video games with friends and enjoying crafting what her next creation would be.
"Reality is overrated and unsafe. In the shadows of my mind, there's a whole other world of colors and shades. Some more dangerous than others, but bewitching in their own way."
