About Ian Moss

Created To Create

Hello there! I’m a graduate of the Columbus College of Art and Design currently living my dream as a full-time studio artist, creating things I love to share with my fellow travelers. As a SoCal kid of the ’80s and '90s I love all things nerdy, and it won’t take long for any conversation with me to veer head–long into Star Wars, Disney, D&D, or art.

I’ve always been fascinated by stories and their ability to create shared worlds, which led to my life-long mission to be part of that experience. How do the images we create tell new stories, and how can we share those with people across the world? From creating in my studio and teaching classes at local galleries to connecting with fellow creators at shows and online, there are countless ways to weave new narratives.

With over 20 years of experience in creative industries, I’ve had my hands in every aspect of design, illustration, and photography. I am proficient in digital and traditional art techniques, the Adobe Creative Suite, and can bullseye wamprats in my T-16 (hand-eye coordination is essential in this line of work).

Come hang out with me on Patreon and see my process in real-time, or reach out with any questions you may have.
