About the artist

Griff is an illustrator by night, hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, where his creative current flows from a small in-town studio. From children’s book illustrations to commercial storyboards, and even scaling walls to paint murals, his work spans a wide spectrum of the visual arts. When he isn’t creating, he can usually be found adventuring with his husband.

Never more than an arm’s reach from a pen or pencil, Griff has been sketching, designing, and imagining worlds since early childhood — a lifelong habit that stands as testament to his vivid and ever-thriving imagination.

That curiosity carried him to Clemson University in South Carolina, where he studied landscape architecture. There, he forged raw talent into a refined and distinctive artistic style, graduating at the top of his class with an accredited BLA in 2009. During this time, he embraced opportunities to travel the globe, expanding the scope and color of an already polychromatic imagination. It was in these moments of exploration and reflection that the concept of Griff-iti first emerged — an idea drawn from the aether that would later take form and grow into what it is today.

If asked what sets him apart, Griff’s greatest gift lies in his ability to problem-solve, analyze, and elevate ideas beyond their initial spark. His work is versatile, adaptive, and meticulously stylized, evolving effortlessly to meet each creative challenge. This critical creative thinking, paired with his luminous and distinctive visual voice, has made him a sought-after and well-versed artist.
