How This All Came To Be

Since as long as I can remember I've had a fascination with drawing and story writing. To me, there was nothing better. Today, that still holds true. I still remember the first time I sat down with a pencil and sheet of paper and drew my first character that wasn't a recreation of something I saw on a Saturday morning cartoon. I was hooked. From there, dozens more followed. I began to see worlds in which they lived in and so, with what knowledge I had of writing, I began to write. This was where the foundation for illustration and animation began.

It wasn't until high school that I got into designing graphics and logos. Being known as "the art guy" around school, I was often asked if I could create images and designs for yearbooks, clubs, and other school funtions. I enjoyed it. But the big break through came after graduation. I loved to draw and design. I loved to write. So I asked myself, "why not combime the two and make a career out of it?" So I did. I attended The International Academy Of Design And Technology of Tampa, Florida, and graduated with a degree in computer animation and design. Since that time, I have worked doing what I love to do and prefecting my skill as an artist, a writer, a creator, a vocal animator, a designer, and an illustrator.

Why The Name?

The name "Attack Of The Idea" was created to represent the thought that ideas come at artist in many forms. As a creator, I've always noticed that when one idea comes to mind, dozens more follow. Some ideas change, and some grow to become more and better. The idea is the basis and building block for any form of art. Without it, I don't think visual and musical genius would exist.
