I am a Visual Artist with a main focus on Digital Painting, Matte Painting, Concept Art (Character and Environmental Design) and 3D Modeling. My projects vary from scenic and portraits, to commissioned works with primary style being digital painting and photo-realism. I have displayed a selection of my projects here.

I work from photographic references, story lines and/or descriptions in creating concept art and environmental / character design. The primary software that is used in my workflow are Photoshop, Blender and Alchemy.

Though most of my work starts in pencil, I view digital art as just another medium. An artist must still use the right brush to get the correct texture or feel and all of the principles of composition, color, form, perspective, etc still apply. Without the basics one only has a paint program and a computer, which does not make an artist. There are many advantages to digital painting some of which are time, efficiency, resolution, costs, and flexibility resulting in a high resolution product ready for print or screen.
