About
Hello Internet, I am Amy. Currently working as a traditional and digital generalist for 10TONS in Copenhagen, assisting in production of all kinds of zoological- and botanical models and paleontological reconstructions. I also teach a weekly figure drawing class in the evening at Copenhagen Drawing Academy (Københavns Klassiske Tegneskole). In 2020 I graduated with a BA in Computer Graphic Arts at The Animation Workshop, Viborg, DK. In my work I always strive for plausible anatomy and lively expressions, be they humanoid or creature, and I love applying my knowledge from fine arts to the digital world. My primary fields of interest are sculpting, concept, anatomy, portraiture, design and illustration. Thanks for stopping by!
