In 2004 Pacdesco was the first site from Honolulu, Hawaii to feature various types of artists, professional and novice from around the globe. We hand picked them by their talent not by their experience or schooling.
Many of these artists have gone on to make a living
creating digital artistry for fashionable corporations, you may have seen some of their work on-line, television, print ads, music videos, or even the
