I am an artist based out of Chickasha, Oklahoma. I have over 30 years of experience in art. I started drawing as a kid, and as a young adult I decided to pursue art as a career. I wound up studying Graphic arts with an emphasis in Photography at the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma. However, as the years progress, my interest in illustration grew to exceed my interest in photography. I am very old fashioned, and rarely use technology to aid in my work. I work best with my hands. My strong areas are portraits, and fantasy art. I can work with almost any medium (On canvas- acrylic, watercolor, pencil, ink, marker, etc). I also work with spray paints and airbrushing.

I've been editing video since roughly '06. Through the years I've gained experience using Vegas, AVID, Final Cut, Premiere, and After Effects. I personally use Premiere, and AE for any necessary effects. I'm looking for most any editing work, and am willing to do so for a reasonable offer. I have taken many classes on video editing, animation, and color theory, and am also a Fine Arts major, so you can be assured that I understand everything. Through my time in those classes, I produced several commercials and interview videos (unfortunately we weren't given copies of these projects). I was contracted by Machinima, Inc., one of the most subscribed channels on YouTube, in 2007 and have been doing videos for them ever since. I've made several comedic shorts which were unfortunately taken off of YouTube in 2008, but am currently working on a couple other films whose details you can see on the forums on my website. I also run and maintain a website (I'm also a YouTube Partner), so you can see that I am not only creative, but also able to keep myself focused, dedicated, and on schedule: http://www.massivemoleculemedia.com If you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Howdy! My name is Wendy and I'm an illustrator. I love to draw. I love creating little alternate worlds, or stirring a memory or emotion with an image. I think illustration is a powerful tool that can be used to convey an idea, promote a product, sell a service, or tell a story. Check out my illustrations here and soon on my website. Feel free to contact me and let me create something new, unique, and specific to your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!
