Not skillful enough to be a
hockey player nor methodically
sufficient to be an astrophysicist,

M.B Yokom found a satisfying and purposeful career in the creative field of marketing and visual design, yet his passion lies in writing, illustration, character design, and animation.

Growing up in a small, quiet town in northern Michigan, he now lives and works in northeast Ohio with his wife and 2 daughters. He graduated from Columbus College of Art and Design studying Illustration and traditional animation.

M.B.’s art style is a blend of traditional sketching and digital artistry, emphasizing character-driven storytelling. His work reflects a thoughtful integration of narrative and design, appealing to audiences who appreciate both the spontaneity of sketches and the polish of digital illustration.

In his spare time on the farm, you’ll find him drawing, drinking english breakfast tea in his barn with 9 cats, 20 chickens, and a three-legged raccoon watching thunderstorms.
