Hi! My name is Jovan de Melo, I was born in 1984 and I work as an illustrator. In 2010 and 2011 I worked at Copa Studio in Rio de Janeiro primarily as a background artist, but also working with animation and character design for the tv animation series “Trunk Train”. Prior to Copa Studio I worked at Nitrocorpz, where I could perform work in illustration, animation and design for clients such as: Bolshoi Pub, MTV Brasil, Nike, One For Green, Revista Capricho, Revista Mac+, Revista Super Interessante, Stüssy and others. Currently I work as a freelance illustrator residing in Goiânia, Brazil.
