Shannon Cheek
Artist and Animator
I have always been interested in art. I started drawing as a kid, sitting in church listening to my father's sermon. It's funny, most of those drawings were of armies, cars and characters I dreamed up, complete with all the accessories, and not about angels and such.
Art has always been part of who I am, even when not creating; to me it is a lifestyle. Whether I am looking at (and analyzing) a beautiful landscape, playing guitar, reading a book, or cleaning house, the approach is with an artistic attitude and flare.
I have been both college educated and self trained, and am always trying to learn more. I have a BFA in Media Arts and Animation and focused my energy on the 3D side. I would ultimately like to work as a 3D character animator. I really enjoy bringing a character to life.
Gaming is a great passion of mine. I am now learning how to create game assets and navigate my way around a game engine. I hope one day, in the near future, to develop my own game and am working on a concept in my spare time.
