I'm teaching a digital painting class. I'll cover the typical workflow, Photoshop techniques, value structure, color, composition. We'll go through how to paint different materials, how to create form, how to use textures and blending modes. Also will look at how to establish depth in space, mix colors, and how different light sources affect objects. http://bit.ly/intropaintclass

Background Painting


Another background painting I did for Disney's "Penn Zero: Part Time Hero". I really enjoyed painting and designing the water and mist. Drawing was done by Brian Woods.

I can now finally post some art that I have done for work!  This is a background painting I did for Disney's "Penn Zero: Part Time Hero" now airing on the Disney XD channel. I had a lot of fun painting and designing the textures and playing with the lighting to create a mysterious mood.  I'm not sure which of our layout artists did the line drawing, it think it was Brian Woods.

From now on, I will be regularly posting a lot more work, both personal and professional.  I've been gone from this blog for over a year, so I have a lot to show!  But to avoid overloading I spread it out. Thanks for visiting! :)

back to the blog!

Work has taken up all of my time this past year, but now I have some time off finally to do personal art.
These are studies from classes I'm taking at Concept Design Academy.  It's been great!

my paint test

 Tried my hand at painting a layout that was already designed.  I did the paint only.  This wasn't used in the show.
