Final impressions
Meet Your Creator
Hi, my name is Maximiliano Cabrera, but I'm better known as Paroro on social media!
I'm a freelance artist from Chile. I'm mostly self-taught and I've been working as freelance Digital Illustrator for about 5 or 6 years now after escaping traditional office jobs for good. I've been drawing anime-inspired works since I was a kid, and I've been going through this journey from creating comics, giving classroom lessons, selling at conventions, printing fanzines, doing art commissions, commercial work, building a social media audience, and more.
I always try to learn a little something myself so then I can teach others. I know there are lots of artists out there with a similar background and I get asked often about how I've managed to push forward and be where I am now, so I'll be happy to help.
