I was born and raised in palos Verdes California, just west of Los Angeles. When I was growing up my favorite things to do were to play sports and play video games. My favorite athletes were Kobe Bryant and Rafael Nadal and still are. I started making art in k-5 school in which my mom was the head volonteer of our art program called art at your finger tips. This was my first time learning about art and all of it's diffrerent forms. I believe i'm somewhat creative and have to ability to make art, although I don't necissarily want to move forward with a career in art. Rather i'd like to strengthen this area so one day I can work with artists and can easily convey what i'm trying to get to them so the process moves quickly. The art I am interested in is video games, which require a ton of art. There are two video games that stand out when I think of beautiful art in a game, and those are zelda breath of the wild and God of War. God of War in particular has so much detail in everything that was animated for this game. The characters are stunning and basically coming to life with how advanced art has become in video games. Similarly, Breath of the Wild has a very different style of art that a lot of games don't tend to gravitate to. In this game the characters and scenary are almost all completely hand drawn, like the game looks like a freaking drawing that is coming to life, it is absolutely one of the craziest works of art I have seen. The exact same stunning feeling I had as I played these games is exactly what I want to bring to the table for other people.
