Hello! My name is Kaelie Rush and my one true love is art. I've been drawing ever since I can remember. As a child, I always loved to write; to create stories, characters, universes, and yet, none of that has changed as I've gone through the years of my life.

​

I graduated from Valley Center High School in 2015 then have attended California State San Marcos University for two years, studying Arts and Tech. However, I came to realize that this university didn't artistically challenge me to the extent I wanted it to. So I began to study Media Arts and Animation at the Art Institute of San Diego starting in Fall 2017. My goal is to become a concept and story board artist within the video game industry, but I'd also do comics on the side. I've always felt that the strongest stories can be told through games. This is because your audience becomes part of the story, they're immersed in it now, they're not just some outsider watching a story unfold without them. Art and video games have functioned as an oasis for me; both have helped me through so many hard times. That's why I want to use my ideas to create oases for other people who struggle similarly.

​

What has helped me the most though is the story I'm creating called The Madman's Advocate. I've been developing this story since 2012 and it still continues to grow. I aim to release it as a web comic once I graduate from college or when I'm nearing the end of college. Regardless, it is needless to say that this is something I'm incredibly passionate about and cannot wait to share with the world!
