Hello, I'm Rachel Graham, a Chicago Based 3D Visualization Artist.
I grew up loving animated films and decided early on I wanted to work in the animation/VFX one day. Becoming a 3D Visualization Artist allows me the creative opportunity to bring to life designs and ideas from scratch, creating beautiful 3D renders of environments and products to showcase their true potential in the real world. It brings me such joy to truly create my own designs for environments, characters, and props. My dream goal is to work in animation and games to tell stories through the 3D worlds I create. I love storytelling and creating fantasy/magical stories that people can enjoy and escape to.
I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Computer animation from Columbia College Chicago in 2020 (Pandemic Graduation). Since graduating, I have worked for several clients as a freelance artist and full-time with a few companies creating architectural renders, product models and renders, and AI/Product configurators for Marketing in the furniture and Lighting retail world.
When I am not creating 3D art, I enjoy traveling, trying exciting new coffee shops around Chicago, creating new games to entertain my cat, and Building fun homes in the Sims 4.
