Jacksonville, FLIn My Own Words
Hi. I’m Sandro. I’m a designer/illustrator/human based in sunny and eclectic Jacksonville, FL. More than anything I’m a husband and dad (to kids and dogs alike). Art is useful for many things but for me it’s primarily a Delorean-like vehicle that transports me back to being a kid. Wide eyed, full of heart, mind wide open to the possibilities of the unknown. I’d love to take you along for the journey. The space ship is fueled up and ready the explore the far reaches of the galaxy (and beyond). Let’s make something cool!
