Naomi is currently finishing up her Associate in Arts degree at a community college before she moves on to earn her Bachelor's in Fine Arts. She currently spends her time - between classes and at home dealing with a psychotic cat who seems to enjoy making life difficult - working on her portfolio and earning commissions and projects (like this one!). She plans on one day pursuing a career in character design and concept art, or maybe cover art for books and comics.

Meg Syverud

Cheeko has established an internet presence as a big-eared, blue-skinned, and purple-haired dragon, but her real name is Meg. She was born but not raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and is formally trained as a Graphic Designer, though making comics gives her a nice fuzzy feeling nothing else can. A chronic procrastinator and huge fan of both the minds behind the Uniques and the comic itself, she still can't believe she's lucky enough to be here.

I've been drawing all my life! Its the only thing I know how to do really well... other than be a daddy! I grew up in the 80's with all the awesome cartoons, like Transformers, GI Joe, Thundercats, etc. Those great shows really inspired me to want to continue my drawing through animation. While I did go to school for that...The Comics profession, ultimately won me over, with heavy influence from great friends! I'm also a professional caricature artist by day. My wife, Melissa, and my 3 kids, Elijah, Elyse, and Ella, keep me focused and reinforce my love for Art on a daily basis.
