But, lets start from beginning. I grew up with Commodore 64, amazed by games like Arcanoid, Bubble Bobble, Boulderdash, Stunt Car Racer, and legendary Pitstop (2). Later on I got PC sistem with Windows 95, again played many games, Oddworld series is one of my favourite, few years later, as soon as I found out in a magazine how do graphics work on PC I found myself the first graphics program I came across ( Maxon Cinema 4D ) and started doing some graphics. Later on I switched to Autodesk 3D Studio Max and continued my work there.
I never really stopped doing graphics, but there were times when I had little breaks from graphics, that's the time I got interested in programming, I past few years I learned basics of C++, C#, VB, Java, PHP and HTML, when I started programming my passion to games lead me to game and graphics programming. Microsoft released fantastic framework called XNA with Game Studio free for non-commercial usage, I've been digging into it since then by doing some mini-projects with my friends.
Back to the graphics, art is my passion, and games (as well as my mistakes) learned me what's working and what isn't. I also made my choice, that I will continue study in art direction, not programming, but who knows, maybe ( I hope ) my programming and art paths will merge somewhere in future.

My name is Darjo Vuk and I'm 18 years old and from Slovenia. I've been learning how to use 2D and 3D graphics applications by myself for quite few year now.
