Claudia Ilona Moussoulos


Cyprus Comic Con welcomes back the talented 3D artist Claudia Ilona Moussoulos to this year’s  Artists’ Alley!

Claudia a.k.a. Claud was born in Cyprus in 1993. Her journey with art started ever since she can remember. In October 2009, she had her 1st painting exhibition opening called ‘The First Step’ at the age of 16. She later went for a summer course in Milan at ‘Nuova Accademia Di Belle Arti’ to learn the art of ‘Stop-Motion’ and later went to Bournemouth, U.K. to study Computer Visualization and Animation.

She is now a freelancer, that foremost deals with 3D Modelling and Concept Art. As CG Generalist she also worked closely with the teams in the gaming industry. As a passionate gamer and artist, she was always driven to create and had long hoped for the opportunity to be on the creative side of gaming, so that she can exercise her creativity in a positive environment. In her free time she likes to play games (obviously).

During the course of the past 4 years Claudia and her partner, S.P. (Savvas P.)a talented musician, decided to combine creative forces. They decided to transform the world and stories within the music into comic book form. She creates the art work, while S.P. does the writing. S.P. will accompany her at her booth, where they will both be signing their material and this year at CCC releasing new comics!
