Hello

My name is Tirza. I am a mixed media artist, meaning I do multiple mediums of art. But my main medium of art I like to focus on is Film and Animation. 

I've lived in Texas my whole life and have been dreaming to work with animation industries and Hollywood. 

My Story

This has been my life long dream ever since I was 11 years old. I started playing around with an animation app called “Flip-a-Clip”. As I played around with the program and started to improve on it, my dream started to expand. I made a lot of animations when I had free time. They would be short videos which were very funny and random. Now I am currently working on an original animation series on YouTube with a talented team called "Samantha and the Guardians."

Viewing my future, I see creating stories which incorporate imagination in my artwork or animations. I've always felt that animation is another unique way to reach out to others and spread messages in a deep and symbolic way. I use a cartoon/anime art style, but I make it my own. I draw anthropomorphic animals, but I do draw different things outside of my comfort zone like humans, architecture, objects, properties of drawing. I make the art style very unique and try to steer away from other well known art styles, like the Cal Bean head style. I often need help with voice acting and art.

I also have work experience with children.

I work part-time at the Glassell Junior School of Art. Glassell is an art school for young people, where creativity and appreciation of art is cultivated. I work as a junior aide (Teacher's assistant) to a few teachers. The Glassell School is also apart of the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. By working at Glassell for a year already, I have really grown as an artist and teacher. Being around an artistic environment is a great experience for me given that is who I am.

 I work at the WIDE School in the afternoons as a care taker. I work with another teacher in an aftercare program to watch and make sure they are safe. Occasionally, I like to teach them how to draw certain things since a lot of kids like to draw until their parents arrive. I have started to take babysitting jobs for some children who go to after school as a side job.
