I like to think that I live indirectly through my work; I always leave a little piece of my soul in everything I do.

My name is GĂ©nesis GirĂłn, and I am a 3D generalist by profession and a designer by passion, currently living in Guatemala.

This is a space to share my professional journey through the artistic, graphic and audiovisual areas in which I have developed.

I am deeply inspired by fairy tales, nature and fantastic stories; In the same way, I take inspiration from the small details and the little things in life. I spend my free time researching art and looking for new techniques and references to complement my style. I like crafts, films and the universe of alternative fashion.

Every day I paint with analogue and digital methods a variety of themes, especially sad girls and magical worlds that remain trapped in my mind and cannot forget until I translate them into a visual work.

One of the greatest pride in my career was my short film Bittersweet which was selected in some international festivals like in Bangladesh and Chile.

It was a long process and a lot of trial and error. It's been a long time and I still love the style that I managed to capture using 2D and 3D techniques.


It tells the story of an unfortunate and ambitious donut who knows nothing of self-control.

Illustration is my favorite form of art, I love creating characters that express what I am feeling. My visual style consists of many textures and shapes with volume and depth. In my personal illustrations I usually use warm color palettes and pastels combined with the contrast of black.

Some visual artists that have inspired my aesthetic over time are: Tim Burton, Naoko Takeuchi, Hyden Williams, Mab Graves, Remedios Varo, Ai Yazawa, among many others that I'm probably forgetting.
