Artist | Professional | Varied
United States
Hello World. I am an artsy fartsy nerd of all trades, a devout Christian, and hopeless romantic for my fiancée LeeAnn.
I graduated in Fall 2011 with an associates degree in Visual Fine Arts, and a certificate in Graphic and communication arts. I'm currently working at a local Minuteman Press franchise as a part time graphic designer, also doing freelance photography, graphic design, and fine art on the side. Also, I'm in the early alpha stages of building an 2D rpg engine with some friends... stay tuned...
If you'd like to contact me with job offers (I take commissions), drop me an email: alex.s.florez@gmail.com You can see a concise portfolio and resume on my website:
