Curious - Whimsical - Imaginative

I'm Isabel Hulsebus, an animation and game design major with an interest in conceptual art, character design and possibly art direction. I've always adored animals and creatures of all sorts, and this has spilled into my work as I've gotten older. I adore creating charming and interesting characters that can be simple but memorable. 
​
I strive to create professional work for my clients that I pick up and provide the desired artwork in short turn around times. I'm always working with my commissioners to create the perfect piece for them and make sure they are as happy as they can be with what they've purchased. 

I have always been interested in nerdy outlets such as film and gaming, growing up with two brothers and a father in technology will certainly pull you into the culture of it. Once I reached a situation where as a teenager I was homeschooled, I was able to start working more on my artistic abilities. I began drawing digitally when I was 13 and continued to advance my skills as far as I could with the tools I was given. As I worked on my craft my view of the world grew into a more global view, and I began playing online games with people all over the world. This strengthened my desire to work in the field of video games or film. 
My last two years of high school I was able to attend Kent Career Technical Center for information technology and 3D animation as well. This created a drive to learn more skills that I could apply to my craft and become more professional with my work. I continued my education into Ferris State University for digital animation and game design, where I have been attending for 5 years and nearing completion. Though I continue to strive for the most professional work I can create and to provide for people joy and charm through my artwork I create.
