ABOUT RIGATONI
Passionate Pasta.
My name is Rigatoni Garrido and I am a fine artist and animator. I graduated from the University of North Texas in 2018, and double majored in Drawing and Painting, and New Media Art. In 2020, I completed my master's degree in Animation & Illustration at Cambridge's School of Visual and Performing Arts in the United Kingdom. My inspirations stem from animals, monsters, bright colors, and cutesy aesthetics.
