I got interested in the creative field back in high school, I was in a class that was all about creative design and was ran as a creative agency for the school, and it was a great experience. I came up with a dream in my mind that I would find a way to make a career in the creative field, and today I am still following that dream. It is always an enjoyable experience to create something that can have an effect on people, to move them to act. Doing work like this is always fun and never feels like actual work, it is fascinating to me that you can make a living at it.
I am a native Floridian and have lived here my entire life, I have played hockey for many years both roller and inline hockey, and I am a major sports fan and I follow sports religiously. You can usually find my brother and I at Lightning and Bucs games supporting the home team, when I am not playing hockey or working on a project.
My reason for entering Artisitk Envy is to learn and grow as a person and as a creative thinker and designer. The entire creative industry thrives on competition. You have to be the best at what you do to get a chance. I want to prove to myself and to the world that I can make this work; I can be a successful creative designer. Life gives you chances at success; I feel this is one of those great chances to find success as a person and to launch my career.

Rick,
On this work, I like the hot colors in contrast with the cool ones.
Great job.
