]]>He comes from a family devoted to art – his brothers drew very well, his father loved music, his mother was an amazing cook, and his sister was a passionate dancer. He grew up in Texas, but moved to LA to become a conceptual artist.
His road to recognition was really tough and challenging – he worked as a cashier in HEB for 10 years. It was a boring job, but it gave him enough spare time to express himself artistically. In the meantime, he secretly fell in love with concept art in video games. He applied for a job as the package designer at HEB, and got it, only to find out he didn’t like it at all. After two years, he got replaced, which turned out to be the best thing that happened to him.
He was 27, recently married and unemployed, and spent the next 7 months honing his skills. Soon, a friend wrote to him about a full-time concept artist position, and that’s where he is now, fully content and as creative as ever!
