About Rory Alexa

I am a multi-media visual artist with a love of fantasy, botanicals and whimsy. My artistic journey started at a very young age when I discovered I was pretty good with a pencil. I wanted to 'be an artist' ever since. ​ After receiving a BFA in Graphic Design and then an MA in Visual Development, my interest in different medias really blossomed. In my opinion, while digital art is the now, there is nothing like using a trusty pencil, ink, or paint. ​ I spend my current days as a graphic designer, freelance tattoo designer, painter and a cat parent of two living in the state of New York. In my free time I am a performer, costume designer and scenic painter at local and long distance community theaters. I am also an avid collector of art books; Labyrinth, Arcane, and The Hobbit are just a few in my collection. Creating art in any form is my release, my sanctuary and the foundation of my happiness.
