Hello
Thank you for taking the time to explore my artistic journey
My Story
Hello, I’m Kesley, a 3D Visualization Specialist and Digital Artist with a lifelong passion for art. My creative journey began as a kid, spending countless hours on art projects with my cousins, surrounded by a family that nurtured creativity in every way. This early exposure to art laid the groundwork for my future.
​
Growing up, I was always asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Naturally, I dreamed of becoming an artist. While I was also drawn to history and archaeology, I realized that a life filled with constant travel or working in harsh climates wasn’t for me. I envisioned a future where I could combine my creative spirit with stability and a deep personal connection, so art was the only option that truly felt right.
​
After high school, I explored various options before enrolling at Utah Valley University to earn a Bachelor of Science in Art and Visual Communications. The program’s diverse curriculum allowed me to experiment and find my true calling through three pivotal courses:
​
-
Digital Painting: This class ignited my love for digital art. I appreciated the convenience of working digitally with no bulky art supplies and a mess free process.
​
-
Gesture Drawing: In this course, I discovered my unique style and how I naturally incorporate elements of psychology into my work. This approach helps create art that invites viewers to find their own meaning.
​
-
Art History: My long-standing love for history was further fueled by art history classes. I was especially inspired by a professor who used 3D models and visualizations in his lessons, planting the seed for my future in 3D work, even though formal classes in this area were often canceled, I pursued learning on my own.
​
After college, I landed a role at Little Giant Ladders as a photographer. This opportunity was a turning point. I fell in love with 3D visualization when marketing introduced Keyshot to speed up our imaging and video production. We faced a challenge when some engineering models of our bags looked too boxy and lacked realism. Rather than shy away from the problem, I took it as a chance to learn 3D modeling with Blender. It was a steep learning curve, but creating the bags from scratch helped me make them look more lifelike and consistent with our brand’s imagery.
​
Since then, I’ve embraced freelance projects in 3D product visualization and sculpting, continually expanding my skills. I now blend 3D sculpting with digital painting and a touch of psychology to craft artwork that tells a story, often drawing inspiration from history and archaeology, celebrating the beauty of human form and structure.
