PAUL CHAMBERS IS A FREELANCE CG GENERALIST

Named one of 2016's 100 most influential CG artists in 3D Artist Magazine

Following a traditional arts background in painting and sculpture, I spent time as an arts tutor and graphic designer before making the jump to CG.  I look forward to discussing your project needs with you and demonstrating how I'll be an asset to your team.
