Markos Demetriou is a rising and promising artist. Dabbling with the arts in his early childhood, its never-ending appeal eventually led to a more serious commitment during his teenage years. Under the guidance of his art teacher, Elisa Pieri, he practised traditional painting and drawing techniques in various styles in order to be accepted for an art degree. His Computer Games Art Degree, allowed him to move onto a slightly different path upon its completion, by practising his, now digital, artistic skills through freelance work in the publishing industry and for charity organizations. He is fluent in three languages, due to his Cypriot-German heritage, and was placed first in a National Debating Competition in Cyprus. When not sketching away on a piece of paper, he can be found reading fantasy books, watching films and documentaries, or enjoying the natural wonders of our planet. During his time at university, he also volunteered for ILOP and various fundraisers. He continually tries to absorb as many things as possible, in order to push the boundaries of what can be expressed through his art. Ultimately he hopes that one day he will be able to repay his family for their continued support, and try to positively touch as many lives as possible to promote an even better standard of living for the entire planet.
