Hey guys, Andy here! I'm a concept artist and digital illustrator with a focus on characters for fantasy worlds - some even see me more as a motivation coach. Currently I would like to build out my own world and story and I invite you to come join me in the building process!

>As much as it is me on screen, I'm here for you, so let's work on that creative grind - together! I may also play some games on occasion!!

# How long have you been drawing for?
