Available to hire
Hi, I’m Gregory Talbert, a college graduate and freelance artist based in Pittsburgh, PA. I specialize in animation, illustration, graphic design, and video production, with experience in stop-motion and 2D animation, and hands-on work with Blender and Toon Boom Harmony. I enjoy collaborating with clients to bring ideas to life through visuals.
Beyond my art practice, I lead and support youth programs, design patches and newsletters, and develop content for scouting and nonprofit initiatives. I’m continually expanding my skills across media—from album art to short films—and I’m eager to tackle new creative challenges.
