Hi, I'm CHARLETON, ARTIST and
COMPUTER GRAPHICS DESIGNER

I'm a computer graphics designer and artist from Willemstad, Curaçao, born in 1992. Growing up immersed in nature, local folklore, and global media, I developed an artistic style that blends these diverse influences. At sixteen, I moved to the Netherlands, where I studied Game Art & Design and Visual Effects, exploring virtual reality (VR) and creating films, animations, and games. Now based in Almere, I work on both commercial projects and personal art. My experience includes contributions to PS4 games, visual effects for award-nominated films, commercials, and interactive VR installations. Moving forward, I aim to further explore the intersection of art, design, and interactive media.

​

Artist Statement

My work resides at the intersection of traditional and digital art, blending the emotive qualities of Impressionism and Expressionism with contemporary, digital techniques. I distill visual elements into high-contrast, minimalistic forms, creating a style that is both striking and refined. My artistic practice spans digital painting, traditional painting, and sculpture, with advanced technologies like 3D printing playing a key role in enhancing my sculptural works.

​

I am committed to pushing the boundaries of both digital and traditional mediums, crafting pieces that capture attention and resonate deeply. My goal is to inspire others by forging a new style that bridges the gap between the old and the new, offering a fresh perspective within the ever-evolving landscape of art.
