His father was a recognized artist with styles ranging from Pollock to abstract watercolor faces and immersed Carl in his art throughout his life. As a sophomore fine art college student, Carl started his first business in 2004. By 2006, Carl had founded the very forward-thinking studio Epic Made. Through the journey of Epic Made over the last 16 years, Carl has been a leader in the green, sustainable design movement; the American-made, eco-friendly apparel and swag for businesses; and the work-from-home guild-style studio that gives artists freedom and allowed him to navigate COVID without restructuring. Carl has always had an eye on the future, educating himself and his team on the incorporation of AI art into design, and the implementation of cryptocurrencies and NFTs into the design market thus elevating his studio to the forefront. He has a Youtube channel- Colorful Carl- where he talks about everything from business advice to backyard homesteading and upcycling as a lifestyle; as well as a weekly Twitch live stream where he creates AI-included art inspired by conversations with other creatives across the industry. Throughout his career, he has worked with some of the most recognizable brands in the business- including, the USA network, Nickelodeon, TnT, and SyFy. And he still finds time to give back to his community, serving as a chapter president for the American Institute of Graphic Artists, joining the Graphic Artists Guild, and guest speaking to students at both the college and high school levels.
