CECY HEGUY
I love how my professional career has turned very dynamic. I'm attracted to new challenges and the novelty trends. As a graphic designer I am passionate about clear and effective communication, with some irreverence (why not). As a painter and illustrator, my eye is always exploring new media and projects to continue developing and learning.
