Herman is an ever-evolving artist currently residing in the multicultural city of Long Beach, California. He pursues his love of computer graphics and storytelling and is often found helping others grow through their own artistic journeys. Herman is a graduate of California State University of Long Beach, holding a BFA in graphic design. His portfolio includes work for Snapchat, Southwest Airlines, Intel, Disney, Special Olympics, Nissan and Honda.

He has always seen inspiration as a hidden jewel that is innate in every person. For him, tapping into creativity is intuitive, which is why he feels most connected to the artistic side when he’s alone in the quietness of nature. A large boulder or blooming flower seems to have its own story to tell. He feels it’s impossible for him to not feel a sense of wonder and vision whenever he steps into nature. As someone who changes mediums and styles consistently, he uses the natural world as the constant that continuously supplies him with a wealth of inspiration to draw from. Herman appreciates numerous forms of art, which can be heard in the ring of his favorite idea "The uglier the better."
