My name is Josie Flores and I am an aspiring artist, animator, and illustrator. I graduated from La Mirada High School as a first generation Visual and Performing Arts Academy (VAPA) student in 2012 and am also an Alumnus from California State University, Fullerton with a BFA in Entertainment Art/Animation.

​

I previously worked as a performer at Disneyland, the "Happiest Place on Earth" - which allowed me to animate my body while depicting different characters and to take that energy and apply it towards my art!

​

I have always been fascinated by the world of Art and Animation & the way characters and caricatures come to life from the imagination of an individual and onto a blank piece of paper.

​

Aside from art, I enjoy playing video games, hiking, and people watching!
