My Bio
Hiya, I love to draw, sculpt, and do 3D modeling. I graduated from the Art Institute of Portland in September 2009 with a bachelors in Visual Effects and Motion Graphics. The main focus of this degree was compositing. My real passion is creating creatures in 3D and sculpting in clay. From June to September I worked at Knott's Berry Farm as a Sculptor in the Props department working on stuff for the Pinocchio Unstrung Maze. In November I worked on rehabbing Christmas floats. I had a great time and love doing that kind of work.

Current Residence: West Covina, CA.
Favorite genre of music: I like a wide variety of music
Operating System: PC
Skin of choice: the one I am currently wearing.

Hiya to the Deviant art community. I started this account way back when I was in college and just never got around to adding much to it. I'll be adding a ton of images to my account now and hope y'all enjoy my art. I'll try to log in regularly and answer any questions I can. Sometimes I get busy and lose track of time, so please be patient if I don't respond to your questions and comments quickly. This last year I've been focusing on developing my skill in sculpting clay. I plan on pursuing this interest further and am currently working on some custom sculptures for some of my co-workers at Knott's Berry Farm. Last June I had the opportunity

Hey there Daniel, I ran across your page from one of your recent posts and have enjoyed your work.  I used to live three blocks from Knott's Berry Farm as a teen and was there more times than I can remember.  So great that your working in a field that gives you so much joy, and you're really good at it course that comes from loving what you do.  

So, keep lovin what you do and continue posting so we here can continue enjoying your talent. Nod 
Thank you so much for adding me to your watch list! I really appreciate it, and I hope you enjoy seeing the all new stuff I have brewing (as well as some of the art from years ago that I'm just now getting around to uploading)! <3 I also have a few other sites I’m even MORE active on and post WIPs of art and writing and such (three are listed in my signature), so if you’re interested, you can follow me on those sites as well. :)

In any case: thanks again, especially for your very helpful feedback, and I'm going to watch you right back!
You have really beautiful work. I'm grateful for the chance to explore your imagination, I find it very inspirational. I look forward to your future work, and am thankful for what you have shared.
Thanks for watching =)
Thank you for the watch, I'm happy to return the favour :)
