ABOUT ME

I am a visual artist residing in southern California, USA. My primary focus is digital illustration using programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Painter, and Clip Studio Paint.

In my previous creative career iteration, I was a commercial artist and graphic designer with over 20 years of professional work experience in the publishing industry and fully trained in traditional art methods like airbrush, acrylic, gouache, watercolor, and pen & ink.
