Christopher Husein’s Summary
I am digital artist who has a passion for design and creativity, with particular emphasis on CG art. I completed my BA in Digital Media at the University of Central Florida in 2005, and have been actively involved in the digital realm both as a practitioner and as an instructor.
My skills have led me to a variety of creative avenues, from graphic design, video effects, motion graphics to 3D modeling and traditional art (painting and drawing). I love to share my knowledge and continue to teach as an adjunct instructor at ITT Tech. In addition to teaching, I currently have a 3D blog (3drockstar.com) in which I post tutorials and articles, so that others can learn online.
My goal is to constantly challenge myself and my design so I can become a better artist.
