As he enters the adolescent years, gradually discovers Computer Graphics software such as Drafix Cad and then Autocad, in its early releases, which allow him to make a qualitative leap in terms of levels of detail and graphic politeness. He spends hours and hours creating urban grids, which are then printed on A4 paper to be assembled with each other reaching areas of several square meters. In the years before University, discovers the possibility of 3D as an even more powerful tool to represent virtual spaces.

Designers, Architects, Engineers, Real Estate & Construction Companies and Public Institutions become part of the vast list of clients that Victor Enrich builts for over 10 years in as an Architectural Visualizer. Although, due to the serious crisis in the sector, and supported by his strong desire to resurrect his creativity, left behind years ago, decides to take a break in his job and begin to experience in the creative realm. Today, he is dedicated exclusively to the development of his art, which is indivisibly associated to his other great passion: travelling.
