About Alex Vermillion

Who am I

I have a strong background in the fine arts, and graphic & production design. I worked as a designer from 2000 until the birth of my son in 2006 when I became a stay-at-home dad. While changing diapers and watching my little guy grow, I found the inspiration to realize my dream of becoming an illustrator. After a lot of work, and an occasionally sore right arm, I am ready.

Where am I

Currently I live in Seattle. Yes, it does rain, but not as much as people think it does,
and never horizontally.

What I Do

I create my projects using pen, pencil, paint, paper, and the computer. I want to illustrate anything that challenges me creatively and technically. Though, I especially love working on children's projects.

A Few Fun Facts

I'm a stay-at-home dad (who manages to fit a lot of work in somehow).
I love robots that can transform (my wife says I have way too many and she's right).
I will eat anything at least once (barbequed chicken's feet — yum, yum. Durian — never again!).
