- How did you get started doing this type of work?

When I do studio work, like graphic design, I accept all sorts of commissions, from standard business advertisements, branding design to architectural renderings and even stage props & backdrops for one of our local theaters. And lately, we've been designing and creating decor for large parties, like the 17 dog houses I designed and built out of foam core.
