	BIO
	Warren Heise grew up in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in the 70's. A youth defined by lego and comics led him to pursue an arts education at Alberta College of Art and Design in Calgary(ACAD) and later, at Sheridan College in Ontario. After a few years of personal exploration Warren returned to his hometown. By day, he paints pixels for one of the worlds leading video game developers, Bioware Corp. By night, he puts on his freelance cap to work for a variety of clients including record labels, book publishers and design agencies. Warren's sometimes award winning work shows stylistic diversity as he continues to challenge himself through personal experimentation. In his spare time Warren enjoys studying current events, guiltily devouring pop culture trash and practicing the fine art of speaking in 3rd person.
