SEA SEVILLA
Sevilla has an extensive background in the 3D world, working with some of the most famous world renowned artists of our time. But it wasn’t until a couple of years ago when an injury had her rethink and adapt to a whole new medium: painting.
In her most recent years, Sevilla explores her ability and understanding in the power of illusion.
