Say hello to Clayton! 👋He is a quiet but incredibly talented artist who loves creating realistic and precise works of art. His attention to detail is unmatched, and his focus is evident in every piece he creates. At 6 feet and 4 inches tall, don't let his height fool you - Clayton is a gentle giant with a warm and friendly demeanor. He's always eager to participate and contribute to our community and loves talking about his favorite things. Lately, Clayton has been particularly interested in sea animals and loves to share his knowledge and passion with anyone who will listen. His current favorites are the Orca Whales and Dolphins, and he can talk for hours about their unique features and behaviors. Clayton enjoys playing video games when he's not creating art or talking about sea creatures, with Ark: Survival Evolved being his current favorite. We are grateful to have Clayton a part of our Hutto Campus! 🤩#ArcAustin #meettheclients #huttohippos #arcartist ... See MoreSee Less
