I am actively trying to get into the animation world.
I am accepting commissions for a variety of multimedia projects:

Please drop me a line at larkinheather@gmail.com. If you interested in commissioning some project, big or small, please contact me directly at the email above. Once we've started a project, we can communicate via Skype or MSN.
I have always known that I wanted a career in animation. Specifically, I desire to create quality animated works, driven by great stories. I am constantly learning, drawing, and looking out for story material. I am also passionate about biology, ecology and natural history.
