Summary

My name is Ross Ciuppa and I’m a digital artist, creative director and entrepreneur. Outer Eye Studios is my personal brand, under which I take commissions, produce original works and fan art, as well as provide educational content and tools for other digital artists.

I create art and stories because doing so invigorates me, but digital art is also simply the best language I know to convey my thoughts, values, and experiences -to materialize them in a way that is compelling to others. Whether I’m creating content for myself, a client, or the masses, I hope that my art can inspire others to pursue their passions or perhaps see an aspect of their world in a different light.
