My Sites: Shop and Instagram

I make art and illustration and teach workshops. My work is mostly character and narrative based, communicating thoughts and ideas in fantastical pictures--and I love teaching others how to do the same.

I do--and have done --a variety of work in the arts including character design for the film industry, children’s books and merchandise, record covers, and commercial illustration. My privately commissioned work is in collections across the United States and in Europe. Gallery pieces are available online in my Etsy store and at Heck Studios.


I provide workshops and presentations on illustration techniques for students ages 16 to adult, and offer a limited number of private and small group classes. This past year I've taught workshops at Foothills Art Center and will be teaching three workshops at Art Makers Denver this summer: Tom Sarmo Workshops 

Let's talk!
