Nalini Kanta Jena
When I was 10 years old everybody discover that I am a gifted artist because at a very early age of 10 I was doing clay modeling of indian goddess without taking any training. I was a famous boy in our village and near by area because of my art.
I did that till my tenth grade then I joined B.K college of art and crafts, Bhubaneswar for my BFA degree in Applied art department. I competed that in 2008. Then I started my professional career.
Since then i have never look back, My art has grown mature. I have worked for many educational Institution such as ZICA, Reliance Education and Arena as a 3d Faculty. I have got lots of love from my students from those institution.
Then I have worked in game production as Game Artist at Lakshya Digital and Dhruva Interactive in Bangalore.
Final words....I don't just teach, I believe in converting a student into production ready artist. I know, it's a huge task but I love this task. This is Nalini kanta Jena hope I will teach you soon the beauty of game art creation and make a solid career as an game artist. This vastly growing profession is waiting for you.
Last but not the list DON:T JUST PLAN, TAKE ACTION.
