Gaming Experience
I've been playing video games since I was 8, and have experience in every gaming genre and on most every console. While playing video games, I always carefully observe artistic elements in the character modeling, environments, user interfaces, weapons, ability animations, and any other visual components of the game. My strong skill of observation is reflected in my art, which I take great care in creating.
Artistic elements are not limited to the visual, and as a successful musician I pay a significant amount of attention to audio elements and how they flow with the game play. Examples of games that I have done some serious artistic observation in, and games that I just plain love are listed below.
