Norm Quiros, artist

I work as a concept artist and designer in Los Angeles. My passions are for characters, environments, and far-out concepts in general. I am fluent in both digital and traditional methods, and am constantly developing my own body of personal work.

�I am also a big fan of the B-movie, science fiction, comic book, and pin-up art.
