My name is Matthew Gehrz. I am an avid illustrator and graphic designer and have a degree in Graphic Design. I have been active in digital asset creation and design over the past three years. Nearly all of my free time is spent developing my skills for design and illustration. I am currently teaching myself how to create video games, animate, and am developing my own website for my webcomic. I also have an interest in learning more about podcasting and blogging/vlogging. I am ambitious in my endeavors to create a strong digital presence in the creative design world. My inspiration comes in all forms of media ranging from graphic novels to classic literary works, from cinema to popular published periodicals, and from video games to first hand experience including human-to-human interaction as well as physically exploring various environments.
