David Navas is a Barcelona-based artist who works as a Story Artist for documentary films, live action and animated features, and, occasionally, advertising. After graduating with a degree in painting from the University of Barcelona's School of Fine Arts, and studying motion graphics and animation, David lived in the United States for 15 years where he worked in television, animation and film.

David has always considered drawing to be his best ally, a daily practice in notebooks where he keeps a record of his experiences. These hundreds of sketch books have served as a source for animations, storyboards, illustrations and paintings.

He has published his illustrations in magazines and books and his paintings have been exhibited in galleries in the US and Spain.

David is the winner of an Emmy Awards and three Promax Awards for his work in television and film.
