Art History

I am experienced and published as a line artist, graphic artist, illustrator, writer, editor, layout editor and photographer. Being an artist allows me to visualize projects and convey those messages to an audience. Working as an artist and journalist I understand the deadline process. I am able to make editing decisions, am good at brainstorming and work great in a team setting. I believe that my illustrative ability, combined with my passion for games, makes me a strong candidate for game designer. I look forward to working with an art team and helping generate the direction and vision of a game project.

"For years Noe has been sending me inspirational stories, ideas and drawings. His art has inspired me so much I am now using his unique ideas and sketches as graphics on skateboards for my skateboard company, Vallely Skateboards. I believe his creative output is one that can entertain as well as effect change. His perspective is a gift to the skateboard community."
