MEET THE TEAM

CHRIS BALTAZAR
FOUNDER

Instagram

Hi! My name is Chris Baltazar and I’m a Multimedia artist who specializes in drawings and illustrations! Being creative is a big part of who I am but it is not entirely who I am.  The Mind, Body, and Spirit is how I keep myself in balance. I read books, workout, and use creativity as an outlet as it is the one thing in this life that makes me feel alive.


JOSHUA TAN
CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Instagram

Hello there! My name is Joshua and I am an all-around artist and designer. I love to create works that intrigue, interest, or tell a story. Wherever I am, I try to make the people around me happy, whether it is through my work or through my companionship. Just like 7-Eleven, I’m always open to meeting new people. I also have 5 cats.


JAIA DOTE
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Instagram

Hello! My name is Jaia (Jah-yah) and I’m a multimedia artist who mainly does graphic design and branding. I’m the kind of person who goes with the flow and can adapt well, and I think that reflects on my work.


GELEENA ESCOBIA
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Instagram

Hiya! I’m Geleena, a multimedia artist who mainly does graphic design, illustration, and some video editing on the side. My creative mind loves to daydream and turn those imaginations into art. I’d say that I’m pretty flexible when it comes to working on any project. To me, new experiences are great opportunities to grow as an artist. I look forward to working with future clients (like you). Cheers!


SAM REGALADO
ILLUSTRATOR

Instagram

Hallo! I’m Sam, a multimedia artist who specializes in illustration, character design, and dabbles in a bit of voice acting as well. Growing up with films from Disney to Ghibli has inspired my work quite a bit and has led me to my love for both fantastical themes and cottage core. I'm a teamplayer with a love for music & arts, bread, and milk tea. And I too, like everyone else, have pets! 2 dogs and 3 cats~ 


DIANNE CALVELO
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Instagram

Hey! I’m Dianne, a graphic artist that dabbles in illustration. As someone who grew up with the cartoons of the 90’s, I often lean towards art that is out of the box and fun. That being said, I have no problems with adapting to whatever fits the project. I also have 6 dogs so it’s a good thing I live far from my teammates


GABBIE DIMALANTA
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Instagram

Hello! My name is Gabbie Dimalanta! I am a Multimedia artist who specializes in graphic design and illustration. As a Libra, I am a lover of the arts and of anything pretty. I focus mainly on visuals for my designs (I mainly take inspiration from vintage and retro themes) Do you want a certain aesthetic for your graphic design needs? I’ll give it to you. I wish I had 5 cats but I’m allergic.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

As of the moment, Arcana does not have any formal office space our clients can visit to as we are still building towards that dream. Projects are discussed through direct messages, video/voice call, and/or through email.

our story

Our founder, Chris Baltazar, has always been a creative and is very passionate about the arts. But he soon found himself wanting more from the art that he created. He moved on trying to establish his own creative agency together with some of his closest friends that was initially named Primal Instinct. This is its name for two reasons: one, the notion of how a wolf pack coordinates and how they look out for each member and two, how its founding members are all creatives with a passion for the arts in which being an artist is our “primal instinct”.

However, upon registering the name, another business had already been using it. On the side, Chris had been working on a personal world-building project he called Arcana filled with his original characters, own world lore, and creatures. But while constructing this world, Chris wasn't entirely sure of what Arcana is just yet. Out of sheer curiosity, he attempted to register Arcana as the company's official name and he discovered that the name was available. Right then and there, he finally knew what Arcana is.
