About me

Hi, I’m Joe Pavelka. I do creative stuff for money, and also for fun and personal enrichment. I have a fine art background, which helped develop a sense that the core idea of any creative endeavor is paramount to anything else, and while visual elements can stand on their own as ideas, I personally prefer visuals to serve an idea that functions as a solid foundation for the creative elements to be built on. INTJ on the Meyers-Briggs if you’re into that sort of thing, I value ideas and concepts over everything else. I like designing characters with wrought backstories, building worlds that are weird and fun to be in, all in an effort to explore some side of humanity and help figure out the Point of it all (or if indeed there isn’t one, to make one). Along the way I’ve learned a whole bunch of computer programs to help with this and I enjoy making stuff real with them. I sometimes speak entirely in Vine references.
