When I was a kid and asked what my dream job would be I always said  "an artist, an author, and a smoothie maker". So, I left my sunny Southern California hometown to study Illustration and Sequential Art at the Maryland Institute College of Art. With one

or two smoothie-related jobs in between, I'm now a book and graphic novel illustrator.

I live in Greenville, South Carolina alongside my two silly kittens Oliver and Theodore. 

Besides that, I spend most of my free time drinking a lot of coffee, playing the mandolin badly, and doodling dragons on important documents. I love all things magical and my favorite projects often involve humor.  

If you'd like to work with me, please reach out to my agent:

Alex Gehringer through the Bright Agency
