I work within a wide range of mediums, techniques, and subjects.
Most recently I was hired by Sideshow Collectibles to work on action figures. I 3D sculpted the designs, engineered the jointing system, cleaned and tested the prototypes as well as painted them.
I spent numerous years sculpting and painting Ball Jointed Dolls under the name of "KaykeDolls" - ranging from human figures to animal pet dolls.
I am also able to make sure 3D sculptures are 3D Print Ready.
I graduated with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts with a specialization area of oil painting. I can work on a small or large scale. Painting or drawing can be completed traditionally, but I am also efficient in digital artwork as well.
I have attended gallery shows with my work. I have also been invited to numerous conventions as a vendor and special guest artist. I teach art in my freetime.
