About Me
Hey! I am Hørður Ingi Egilsson, better known as the creator and artist behind HIEX. I am 25 years old and I am from the Faroe Islands which is 18 scattered islands located in the North Atlantic ocean. I live in the village Sandavágur which is on the island Vágar.
My name HIEX stands for Hørður Ingi Egilsson which is my real name. Words that are meant to be hidden often have an 'X' over each letter and it is for the mystery that it is implemented in HIEX. It also comes close to 'Hex' which is a magical spell or a curse when abridged.
I have always been fascinated with drawing and never thought it to be anything I could ever do well. It wasn't until I was roughly 16 years old that I tried to draw something and do it as good as I knew how. I liked the result and the process so I kept on drawing.
I don't have much else to say about my artistic story as I find it mortifying to boast about myself, and there is also so much left to achieve, for example a narrator, so this can respectably be in third person. So I will leave this to be continued...
