Joel Cotejar lives in the Philippines with his wife and son. He started working as an illustrator in 1999. He developed his skills while working at a children's book publishing company and has grown into a respectable freelance artist working genres from traditional, digital and 3D arts. He is also a 3D animator and works with texturing, rigging and modeling.  One of Joel's most notable accomplishments in the 3D world was his outstanding work on the Nintendo DS game "Flushed Away" (based on the DreamWorks movie). He is very proud to be a part of that team and worked as a 3D texturer on most of the movie along with other projects such as animatics and advertising presentations.  He was also involved with the 2008 independent film, "Dayo", which he worked on as a 3D texturer.
