Dijon

Hey everyone. My name is Dijon. I began drawing at the early age of three and playing football when I turned four and have been an artist/athlete ever since! It's always been a challenge finding enough time to balance and pursue my two passions but It's been working out so far. Mostly self-taught, I was introduced to color and painting through an art program in High School. Ever since then, I've been experimenting with different mediums. Now as a freelance artist, I specialize in digital artwork, graphic design, and mixed media painting and drawing.
