Betocampos was born in Belém, Brazil, where he began his career as a traditional artist, hosting his first solo exhibition when he was only 14 years old. One day he met the Cintiq digital tablet, and exchanged the old screen for digital media, and never more soiled his hands with oil paint. He has an academic background in graphic design and post graduate studies in design, marketing and advertising.
