Sage has homeschoooled his entire life, in fact he has unschooled (or freeschooled rather!). He has had a beautiful rich childhood- full of imagination, backpacking, gaming of all kinds, origami, stories, and a lovely family life- they still read aloud together! A big focus of his childhood and teen years has been Live Action Role Play- a form of cooperative storytelling, where characters are created and stories are acted out. Here, Sage has learned fantasy, medieval lore, character development, and costume design, and the imagination used is off the charts. He also trained to be a game master where he leads younger kids in this world- he even runs birthday parties sometimes! Sage hopes to continue costume design in the future, and will be taking courses at West Valley college in preparation to transfer to a costume design school in Italy.

Kelby started homeschooling in 1st grade, and experimented with various curricula as he enjoyed his childhood. He became very interested in art at around 12 years old and started drawing prolifically, becoming a wonderful self taught artist. He uses pencil and fineliners, and his art is very detailed. He’s also incredibly athletic. As a young teen Kelby did a lot of gymnastics and horseback riding. Recently, he got a trainer who is encouraging him to run track. Nowadays he works out regularly (calisthenics- Can do 20 clean pull-ups in a row!), and sprint training, and plans to run track for the Victor Valley College. Kelby participates in Pathfinders (a program similar to Boy Scouts) where he’s learning various wilderness and survival skills. Kelby is planning on going into the trades and becoming an electrician. He’ll keep doing art and track as he pursues this career at Victor Valley. Look for his “Immaculate” brand in the future. Merch with his art on it.
