Hello all! My name is Ben Pozniak! .
I like to paint, draw, design, animate, take pictures, make movies, you name it! I have a Bachelors Degree in 2-D Animation from Kendall College of Art and Design. I have worked as a caricature artist, a bike delivery messenger, a skateboard shop owner, and as an interactive designer for Biggs-Gilmore. You can peep some of my work for Biggs here.
I have been privileged enough to work with some really amazing people. I am also a founding member of The GR8, a group of eight talented illustrators all from Kendall, who came together to make a dent in the Art Prize competition. And make a make a dent we did! No, we did not win, but we made some amazing work, be sure to take a look at some of the videos we made.
