Hello, I'm Kyle. :)
Hello, I'm Kyle. Graphic Designer, Illustrator, and Artist. I'm a detail-oriented, creative person who rarely gets bored (because I'm always making things).

After years of high school art classes (painting, ceramics, mixed media) and more 4-H craft projects than I could keep track of, I was accepted into the design program at Buffalo State College. For 4 long years, I studied, drew, painted, sculpted, crafted, designed, and created my way into earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Communication Design (2011).
Since then I've been working as a freelance Graphic Designer and Mixed Media Artist.
My professional design work has included logo designs/branding Identities for several groups/businesses, illustrations, and various web banners/flyers/business cards. Most clients are local, but once in awhile, I'll work for some small businesses online too.
My artistic work is considerably more varied in nature. There is an ever-growing number of people, all over the U.S. and the world, enjoying my hand sculpted polymer clay charms, digital paintings, ornaments, and handmade Dollhouse Miniatures. Not to mention the occasional OOAK creation here and there. In 2019 I picked up my first big-eyed doll, and that started an even weirder chapter in my creative life adventure. To quickly sum up why my work is so diverse: Boredom is a choice, and Creativity is all about possibilities.
I've been taking custom orders and doing commission work since early 2013. I have been commissioned to create everything from tiny painted butterflies for a miniature garden, here on Etsy, all the way up to an original mural painted on a utility box on Elmwood Ave. in Buffalo, NY. Like most artists, the only thing that limits what I can do is time and money (and those moments when you find yourself staring at a blank canvas).
