About Me

Bonjour! My name is Ethan Nelson and I’m a visual artist that specializes in 3d digital art. I play an abundance of video games, I absorb much influence from the natural world around me. I love to make monsters and creatures. I have a special place in my heart for music and traditional 2d art. I aspire to create experiences and memories for people because those are the things that I hold onto the most.
