Hello, I'm Eric Raygoza!
I am a multi disciplined artist based in Oakland, CA. I was raised by two artistic, disabled parents and have been creating art since I was 5 years old. I am passionate about sketching, illustration, and inking. I also enjoy working with watercolors, acrylic, and oil paints, as well as creating clay sculptures.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Game Art and Design. My first half of art school was spent at Ex'pression College Emeryville, CA Campus where I majored in Animation & Visual Effects. I then transferred to SAE Institute in San Jose,CA where I completed my degree in Game Art & Design. I have also taken various film (Pre to Post Production) and writing classes, and have produced and directed several short student films.
Professionally, I have spent time as a Special Education Paraeducator, Middle School Art Teacher, Freelance Artist, and vended art prints of my work at several art & cultural events.
I am skilled in using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for digital painting, compositing, and photo editing; Maya for 3D Modeling and animation; Unreal Engine for game and level design; and Final Cut Pro for video editing.
Thank you for taking the time to read this!
