He has worked at Cleos Studios Animation since last summer, and is always looking for a challenge. His artwork is very stylized and personal.

Since young I've always been artistic and loved art, from the first comics my father got me as a kid to discovering the amazing world of anime I love art in all its forms. From my early teens I became more dedicated to art and it has been a major presence in my life and when I got my first computer that was my own and tried an earlier version of Photoshop I was hooked on digital art, this is my passion and my sweat from years of learning on my own how to do things and try to get better with each thing i have created Completely self taught and self motivated, please enjoy my art that has become such a focal point in my life.

My name is Gabriela Batista. I am a cartoonist and inspiring animator that wishes to make people happy through my artistic skill. I grew up finding that drawing let me express myself and would allow me to escape the harsh reality of my life. Growing up in a bad neighborhood it was hard to do what I loved but I found that drawing made those who were having a hard time smile and be happy for the short period of time I could. Growing up watching cartoons made my life easier and brought happiness to my childhood. Once I got to middle school I knew I wanted to get into the Art and Design high school to work towards my dream of becoming an animator of Cartoon Network creating my own show. And I wish t do this to bring happiness to as many people as I can.
