Concept: Zen | Ceris G. Heison

Resume

My currently popular works:

Will be posting colored character sheets and profiles this coming week.

Trying to stay busy as always; trying to gain more freelance work while I apply for full-time positions. Doing discount commissions to save money for tattoo equipment for my tattooing endeavors. So many fields I want to have a hand in, but still working to always remember my focus of conceptual artist.

And now I can say, Art Direction can be added to my focus as well. To help lead a team towards something that'll steal the mind space of the viewer; making sure they'll never forget the experience. And neither will the team who came together to create it.

It's been a long time, which can be blamed COMPLETELY on Concept Art House. Well, to be fair, it wasn't completely them...had another client. But they're the main suspects! Cool people, gave me a job, so now on the top of my "Fabulous People!" list.

Still available for freelance work!

Presently, I'm working on transferring my Thesis project [flash/DVD] onto http://fydbac.com as a Flash site. Till then, Please feel free to explore a variety of my work showcased here [deviantart, mangarevolution, or just google 'fydbac'] including my thesis. There'll be daily updates as I will posting work that was on http://fydbac.com as well as my thesis and other recent works I've been looking forward to post.

As I just graduated with a MFA in Computer Art from SVA in New York, I'm looking for a full time position where I'll be able to utilize my talents and contribute myself to a unique and imaginative project of various mediums. While accepting commissions and freelance work, I'm applying for full time positions in the creative field [conceptual, illustration, comics, fashion, graphic design, etc.]. My focus is Conceptual art with a specialization in Character Design, but I also work to apply that same focus into all other creative fields. I'm very willing to relocate, whether within the US or Overseas. I've lived in Japan, Tokyo for a year and look forward returning to Japan as a part of the creative field if I should ever find the opportunity.

Provided below is a link to my resume with more of my contact information. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you have any concerns or inquiries of any kind.
