Freelance 3D animation work is by contract only. Please reach out to me directly for more information about 3D animation contracting. My 3D animation work is bouncy, unique, and fluid, adding character to otherwise static blocking. I add depth to any shot by animating unique movements and drawing from real-life acting references.

2D animation can be commissioned (for personal use) or contracted (for business use). I love animating character work and turnarounds, making my 2D work useful for other artists to reference from. I work with bright colors and dynamic FPS changes to add dimension and uniquity to the project.
-
Other work of mine is by commission only. I work in a variety of mediums- allowing commissioners to draw from a variety of options. I also have an open shop, where linocut prints and other projects are available, made to purchase.
