I am Will Burrows.
Born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska by wonderfully creative and supportive parents, my life long passion for creating things was fostered from the start. "Draw from life!" my dad would say, encouraging me to learn to observe the world around me and eventually express what was in my head boldly and accurately. My mom would buy me rolls of butcher paper to draw on rather than a GameBoy, something I'm eternally grateful for.
In an attempt to merge my thirst for creativity with a career path, I studied environmental design and architecture at Montana State University, receiving my Bachelors of Environmental Design and Masters of Architecture in 2006 and 2008, respectively.
After a brief and extremely lucky career as a budding architect, I had my quarter life crisis and decided to focus on illustration and graphic design under the name IWILLDRAW.
In 2011 I moved to Reno, Nevada where I live with my beautiful, creative wife Kelly and our two energetic little kiddos. I have found a professional career as the Vice President of Design at Crazy Tooth Studio® ( www.crazytoothstudio.com ). Game design, with the CTS crew, has become true passion full of interesting challenges and broadens my visual skills set on a daily basis.
I feel strongly about drawing a line (pun!) between professional work and personal work - this little website is a way to document some of my personal work. Over the years I’ve posted freelance design, field sketches from architecture school, sketches, scribbles, and finished fine art commissions.
Thanks for stopping by.
