John’s vast skill set covers a wide spectrum of the visual language, including fine art, illustration, sculpture, photography, 3d printing, screen printing, and web/print design. He has worked for many clients, including VSP Global, TBDFest, OCEANA, Microsoft game studios, UC Davis, Organizer, Sacramento Parks & Recreation Department, WAL Sacramento, and many more.
