"The Artist"

Tobias Rose got his start in graphic design while in High School. he always had a love for art, and he loved to draw people. During his senior year, he discovered programs such as Photoshop and Corel Photo. At the time, he would play with the programs without taking the effort seriously. His teachers told him he had a gift and should stick to it, however, he wanted to become a software engineer, and art wasn't something that he could see himself making a living in, but it was something he had a natural love for which he couldn't escape. His parents as well as his friends urged him to stick to art. He left high school as a governor's school nominee for art and a junior rotarian for his hometown of Kannapolis among numerous honors.

Tobias Rose attended North Carolina Central University where he majored in Computer Science, and then Art Concentrating in Visual Communications. With his natural artistic abilities, he felt that he needed to excercise them and learn how the graphic design world operates. His skills grew and he became a serious artist.

His specialties include site design, publications, corporate identities and illustration.
