Debbie Hefke

Was born and raised in Seattle Washington. As a young child I was always fascinated with the arts. Through the years I was entered into high school art contest’s and shows and won first prize.
I went onto college where I graduated the top of my class with a degree from The Art Institute of Seattle, my major was illustration and computers. Shortly after graduation I got a job working for Humongous Entertainment. I was an on staff artist working on children’s video games. I did everything from cleaning up art work and painting it, to creating new backgrounds. After a time there I went onto managing a team of artists. I hired them and trained them with the in house proprietary software. After five years working with the company I moved to San Diego CA. Where I went back to school and acquired another degree from The Art Institute of San Diego. This time I majored in animation and media arts. After becoming a 3D animator I moved once again to the east coast with my family. Not knowing anyone there and having to find a job I created my own job. I am now currently working freelance around the world with clients in Great Britain, Australia and many other places.

My true love and passion is to create illustrations with vibrant colors in any medium required love them all digital and painted with brush and paint.
