I grew up in the Skeena Valley surrounded by the lush coastal mountains of Terrace BC. Like many artists, I drew and created obsessively all throughout my childhood. After graduating I sought new experiences travelling around the globe for several years, selling my paintings and pursuing other creative endeavors until I discovered Halifax, Nova Scotia. In the rugged Atlantic I decided to pursue an education and career in animation. I now have over 17 years under my belt in the thriving Canadian animation industry, and have been involved in nearly all stages of 2D animation production. I currently specialize in Concept Art/Environment Design and have done some Art Direction as well.
I currently live in BC with my wife Lydia - a talented Art Jeweller and Metalsmith -https://lydiabuxton.com/- and daughters Savann and Juniper.
