Lukas Damgaard - Invidious

Lukas Damgaard

How does an image make you feel something? 🌿 I dissect the visual storytelling of films, manga and animation to discover how images create emotion — then I use those techniques in my own art.
I paint in gouache, watercolor, pen and ink and occasionally digitally.

I am a working Art Director in the Animation Industry, with 17 years of freelance experience as a visual storyteller. Graduated Animation Film Director from the National Filmschool of Denmark.
