2022-2023
Worked on myriad of animations and other projects during my time as a Mograph Artist with TAG. Most art assets would be provided to me by the team, with highlights to fellow artists Aniela Ariton, Lidia Macovei, & Paul Paun. Thereafter I'd format and rig the illustrations for my own animated spin.
2023-Present
Helped contribute rigs, character & pattern animation, and full musical sequences alongside a small-scale art team, for use on LED light displays across the continent!

Thanks so much for checking out my page!I've studied at the Savannah College of Art and Design with a BFA in Illustration, and am currently on the look out for my next full time opportunity.Art is a rollercoaster field of work to be a part of, but I'm always excited by what each new project brings. Be it concept art, puppet animations, or otherwise, the variety will never stop being a fun surprise for me!
Portrait Animations
A selection of head portraits animated by me, and illustrated by Aniela, of the various staff at TAG during the course of 2022.
Splash Art & End Cards
Animated illustrations used either in TAG's title Move or Die, or as end slates to various trailers released of their other current or upcoming titles.
Sale Animations
Animated promotional banners of TAG's published games, for use on social media during various events throughout the year.
Comics
Small promotional illustration projects done during the downtime between projects. Script and dialogue were provided by others on the team, while all illustrations and coloring were done by me!
Logo Animation
Various logos I'd animated for use with splash art, advertisements, or in game assets.
Steam Page Assets
Decorative elements animated for the published steam pages of Move or Die, Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom , and Super Mini Mart. Pixel art assets were fully designed and rendered by me.
Logo Design
The general evolution of the TTR and Toonfest logos throughout the years of their use.
Logo Animation
Animated seasonal variants made for use on the main TTR website.
Blueprint ARGs
A set of illustrations done in 2021 as homage to an older set of blueprint style illustrations I'd done back in 2014, for a website based event around the release of new endgame content in the form of Field Offices.
Concept Art
Various illustrations and sketches done for potential assets in game or on the website.
Fish Designs
After creating each of the five fish designs used for the extension, it was a lot of fun coming up with the varied unique color palettes they could spawn in as throughout interacting with it! (The Star Squids are a personal favorite)
Environments & UI
The different tank landscapes were painted with a technique called HD Index Painting! I believe the rendered fish sprites used it as well. It's a method of pixel art I don't use as much for newer works, but can still be very fun to utilize on larger scenery.
Logo Design
Freelance Animation
Paid animated works done for channel branding on Youtube & Twitch, self promotion on social media, or just for fun to bring client ideas to life!
Lords and Villeins Art Test
A multi-week art test for the indie game Lords & Villeins, with the goal of creating a fully featured overworld tileset.
Animal Arithmetic Kickstarter Animation
An animation snippet I helped contribute as a pinch-hitter on the larger kickstarter trailer for the project. All character art assets used were provided by the AA team for me to work with.
Reanimated Collaborations
A series of non-profit fan projects I've made contribution to with the goal of reimagining different animated episodes or music videos. Franchises including Rhythm Heaven, Super Mario RPG, Tamagotchi, and Kirby.
