Short Story: I'm a digital artist who has been drawing my whole life. I do character work or clients all over and in my spare time, create characters and environments of my own.
As for the long story, I’ve been drawing my whole life. For as long as I can remember, my teachers and classmates told me that drawing was my ‘talent,’ which motivated me to keep practicing.
When I was fifteen, I discovered digital art and learned about posting your artwork on Internet communities like DeviantART. I'll always remember my sixteenth birthday I was gifted a computer of my own, along with a scanner and a small Wacom Bamboo tablet. That was when I began to teach myself how to draw digitally.
Though I attended college briefly and spent much time traveling while working various jobs, art has always called me home.
For the last twenty years, I've dedicated time to learning my craft and discovered what I'm most passionate about is creating interesting character designs. I've taken on many commission projects from clients worldwide, and hope to pursue a career in conceptual design. I'm currently based in Texas, United States, where I live with my beloved shih tzu, Gemma.
