Hello!

I finally made one of these. I think I was supposed to a year ago. Haha. Bear with me, I'm new to this.

I'm Nate. I'm a cartoonist. I have a cat.

Here she is.
I play World of Warcraft.

I know, I know. I'm quite the catch. [/sarcasm]

Let's focus on my being a cartoonist, because that is at least remotely interesting. I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. It wasn't until recently that I realized that it's entirely possible for me to be a serious cartoonist. (Is that ever an oxymoron.)

Past to Present:

I graduated with an AS in Computer Animation from Full Sail in Winter Park, FL.
I was working on a BA in Illustration online with Art Academy University in San Fran, CA. Due to money and time constraints, I've recently left the program.
When I can afford it, I attend Art Student League in NYC. I take the Sequencial Art course. (I would love to take a full time comic study. Possibly the Kubert School in Dover, NJ, but for now, I work a corportate job and that doesn't give me much leeway to move around.

And the thing that you probably want to see and not read me babbling.... CARTOONS!






Both toons published in the Rutgers Observer. (I forgot to mention, I did comics for the Rutgers Neward Observer.) This one was pretty rough, but they asked me to do it at the last possible minute and I did it during my lunch break at work.













These were made for my sister's editorial articles specifically. (In other words, I didn't get paid for these.)
