D & D

Here are some new posts of some art I did in 07 and 08.






Its been 3 years since my last post on this blog so I don't expect much traffic. I have recently gave a whole mess of art over to my cousin to update my web site but I haven't gotten any word that things are shaping up on that front and I decided to not to continue holding my breath. I am making an attempt at being proactive.
There is so much art though I don't know where to start so I guess I'll just start with some stuff that I have done in the past year for D&D.
This is the sketch for the Dragon Park. This was the first image I did for Wizards of the Coast.

They wanted the view closer to the ground so I did this. Whenever I get a new client there are some growing pains while we get used to each other. It can be a bit frustrating at first but it should work out in the end if your patient.
And here is the final. I am still pretty proud of it because it is the first time I was really using techniques I learned from my then boss and friend Stephan Martinere.
Since that peice I have done all the art at the top of this post. I have also been doing concepts and painted cards for Magic the Gathering, none of which I can post until October.
In Feb 09 I left Midway where I worked for 7 years. I took a job with Vogster Games and I am art directing on an unanounced project. I have lots more stuff to post, some old and some new.
I'll try and post more stuff next week. Thanks for looking.
