Sheba discovered her love for art and music at an early age. Since the fifth grade, Sheba knew that creativity was her calling. Art was the fluid that nourished her educational experience and music was the soundtrack that played in the background. You could always find her drawing, painting or taking classes that would sharpen her artistic skills. She decided that she would pursue and Animation degree at the University of Central Florida. Though she was a fine artist at heart, she chose Animation as her career. She was fascinated with the fact that she could make her art come alive on screen. Studying animation has given her a keen eye for detail, which helps to improve her paintings and drawings. In 2005 Sheba graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree and decided to further her education at the Academy of Art University. She received her Master’s Degree in 3-D Animation from the Academy on May 20th 2009. Her ultimate goal is to create her own company that merges music, Animation and art together under one roof.
