When I was 20 I went to learn 2D and 3D designing first time.

When I actually started watching movies and playing video games. I saw the entire world in 3D and I saw the future as 3D too.

In my childhood, I was good at drawing and programming. But I learned Combined maths, Physics, Chemistry for my A/L s. After that, I realised I haven't passionate about that field. So, I was looking for a field that combines art and technology and I found CGI field.

in age 19 - after school

When I'm in 23 I could join as a freelance VFX artist at AriyansFilms in 2011. that the key point of my entertainment industry.

When I see things that can do with softwares I wanted to learn visual effects and 3D animation.

I wanted to be in this industry when i was little. When grew up to 17 years I want to take my country Sri Lanka to the International Film industry.

i wanted to learn when i saw the beauty of vfx and 3d in movies of the 21st century especially the lighting and rendering

since I can remember I could draw such things very accurately at a very young age, somehow I ended that passion with some other interest as a kid, however, I learned some 3D at a local institute and that is how I became this, and I worked as an intern 3D artist a few years ago (2016-2020) and ended up becoming a freelancer, I was the CGI department lead when I left that place, so far I have not found a good match yet,

Because one day, I found this is my passion

I was doing some graphic design as freelancing

After coming across a instagram reel while I was working for my 8-5 job.

After done with my advanced level exams

I realized I wanted to work in the creative industries during my school days. I've always had a passion for drawing and as I honed my skills, I discovered the world of animation and illustration, which captured my imagination. It's been a fulfilling journey bringing ideas to life through my artwork.

By watching movies whith visual effects and watching YouTube videos.
