Welcome to my on-line portfolio, a collection of digital and traditional art from the mind of Nick Gilliland. Take off your shoes, get comfortable, and make yourself at home. Just be careful of Toothy.
In the March of 2006, I graduated from Desert Vista High School in Phoenix as a recognized member of the National Honors Society. I went on to enroll at the University of Advancing Technology in Tempe, Arizona, and graduated with a Bachelors of the Arts in Game Design in September 2008.In February of 2008 I also published my inaugural novel, Reaper Clan.
In addition to studying game design at the University of Advancing Technology, I also studied both digital and traditional art, both at the
University of Advancing Technology, and at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am trained in Adobe Photoshop and 3DS Max.In my spare time I enjoy writing short stories and full length novels, and drawing. I am also an avid fan of StarCraft, and the Legend of Zelda series, both of which were my inspirations to enter the field of video game design.
