About Us

My name is Vim Viva. Despite the title of this portfolio, I am only ONE artist. This portfolio is an exploration of several aspects of my work. That is one of the reasons I call this gallery "5Artists"
I love to explore creative and expressive possibilities. I have a passion for learning new things, mastering new mediums and being ever flowing and flexible with my art.

Because of my passion, my portfolio is a mix of styles, techniques and themes. Adaptiveness to variety and change is the core characteristic of my life and work and I wanted to include it as an element to the name of this portfolio.

Additionally, my family is vital to my inspiration and my creativity. My wife is an artist ( www.giotavorgia.com), and my three little boys are at an age of great, spontaneous, artistic creativity (they are 5, 3 and 1 years old).
All together we are five.
And those are the reasons why I call this portfolio "5Artists".

Services

I enjoy taking on custom projects and commissions from all over the world. When I take on a commission, I do my best to create the most effective artwork that will resonate with the essence of your project .

I accept commissions as a Fine Artist, Illustrator, Concept Artist, Cartoonist, 3D Artist, Character Designer, Environment Artist, and Creative Thinker. Yes, I can do all of those things and I have found that being versatile and flexible, makes me aware of the most creative solution to a project.

Additionally, I am a born teacher, and I have been teaching, training and coaching young and professional artists since 2001.
I am passionate about teaching my techniques , my working methods, but most of all, the mental processes of creativity and inspiration.

I offer training seminars and love to work with schools and training facilities. I also keep an ongoing , daily blog with free videos of my processes at www.vimviva.com
