¡Hola! Mi nombre es Randy Morales. I'm an artist and part-time adventurer based in Charlotte, NC. I was born and raised on the outskirts of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. There, I spent my days drawing with charcoal on the walls of abandoned houses, making fires with friends, and exploring the deep tropical forest under the scorching sun. Today, I continue to pursue my passion for art and the outdoors. When I'm not creating, you can find me climbing or riding my bike somewhere around the Appalachian Mountains.

Randy Morales, a young man with dark hair and a mustache, wearing a black shirt, stands against a light green background.

My focus is on illustration and animation direction, bringing stories to life with a diverse skill set that includes motion design, cel animation, art direction, editorial, and character development. I'm passionate about visual storytelling and strive to create bold, compelling narratives that are full of personality and my unique perspective.
