Characters with
a story to tell.

I'm Walter Quinar, a freelance illustrator from Caracas, Venezuela, working professionally since 2014.

I create characters with personality and build the worlds around them through light, color, and atmosphere. Fantasy games and cinema, from Final Fantasy and World of Warcraft to The Lord of the Rings, often inspire my work.

I work with independent authors, trading card game projects, and private clients across illustration, character design, and concept art. I'm always open to exploring new subjects and visual ideas.
