My name is Alex. I&#8217;m a freelancer artist and animator specializing in custom illustrations, visual imagery and animations created to order.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Have an idea for a character, a personal avatar, a cartoon, a gift, or a short animation? I can turn your concept into a unique piece of artwork made specifically for you. My commissions include custom character illustrations, profile avatars, cartoon portraits, digital artwork, animated characters and scenes, short animations, motion graphics and visual imagery for creative projects, presentations and other media. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><\/p>\n<ul>100% human-created, with no AI used in the creative process.<\/ul>\n<p><\/strong><\/span> Whether you have a detailed vision or just a rough idea, I work with each client to develop artwork that captures the personality, mood and style they&#8217;re looking for. From a fun cartoon version of yourself to motion graphics for your new creative concept, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><\/p>\n<ul>your idea is the starting point.<\/ul>\n<p><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I have a B.F.A. in Visual Arts (Animation) and two Associate degrees in Digital Animation and Digital Media and Web Technology. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Visual Arts have been my passion since my early childhood. I have Autism. It means overcoming many obstacles and difficulties. My art has been a way to express myself and to persevere. I use diverse media, from high contrast black and white ink drawings to experiments with richness of color palette. My animation style has been influenced by such cartoonists as Joe Murray and Chuck Jones, and such series as &#8220;Rocko&#8217;s Modern Life&#8221; and others. It feels fantastic to be able to bring the characters I had envisioned to life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I am passionate about traveling and immersing myself into different cultures and histories. I believe sharing our diverse experiences and finding our similarities and common goals lead to mutual enrichment and a better world. I was lucky to have studied abroad in Rome. I hope to find opportunities to work in different countries in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I care deeply about environmental protection, animal welfare, and rights of people with disabilities. I have volunteered in shelters and at a camp for kids with Special Needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In my spare time, I like drawing cartoons, lifting weights, riding my bike, hanging out with friends and snuggling with my cats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-603\"
