My name is Jared Gula, I am a 3D Environment Artist from South Dennis, MA, with a specialty in textures and materials. I love building worlds, from large-scale environments, down to tiny details in the textures that each tell their own story. I love approaching art on a technical level so that I can create complex systems and tools for myself and others to use with ease and simplicity. My goal with everything I know and have learned is to become an environment texture artist in a game studio, which would involve designing materials that would be used to color and texture landscapes and objects within video game worlds.
