About

Hello, the name’s Nat! I’m a Buffalo State University graduate who earned their B.F.A. in Graphic Design, but my interests go far beyond advertisement. I love to create concepts primarily for creatures, and I’m also continuing my journey as an animator and 3D modeler. I’m excited to see where the future takes me as I learn new skills to add to my list. Join me on my adventure as an artist, you won’t regret it!
