Hi, I'm Tripp! I am an Atlanta-based graphic designer, illustrator, cartoonist, and animator. With over 12 years of professional experience, I am passionate about creative problem solving and immersive visual storytelling. I am a highly versatile generalist who loves experimenting with new things, and my happy place is telling stories that are weird, colorful, and from the heart.

I am currently seeking full or part-time work in graphic design, motion graphics, and illustration in Atlanta, surrounding areas, or remote. I am also open to freelance work in any part of my extended skillset -- 3D modeling, comic art, storyboarding, animation, and more. If you like my work and are interested in working together on a project, reach out at trippgustin@gmail.com or on one of the above platforms and let's talk! Rates will vary depending on the specifics and scope of the project, and my resume is available upon request. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Beyond my work, I love experimental storytelling, video games, vibrant fashion, time travel stories, hiking, poke, photography, TV miniseries, fitness, independent art, live performances, and late night karaoke. I began drawing my own comics at 9, which fostered a love of visual storytelling and creator-owned work from an early age. I earned a BA in Advertising and Graphic Design from the University of Alabama in 2012, worked as a designer for 10 years, then earned a BFA in Animation from Augusta University in 2023. My biggest personal passion project is Trueniverse Comics, a collection of interconnected webcomics that experiment with multimedia storytelling and genre. It's nice to meet you!
