| I am a commercial artist with around 15 years of experience, 7 years of which was spent working full-time in the computer games industry. Prior to that I worked in a design studio, and going back further still I was taking on paid art commissions as young as the age of 14. <BR>I have a number of high-profile published game titles under my belt, including work on the Theme Park series (where I produced concept art as well as building, texturing and animating 3D models). Probably my biggest achievement so far is as the main concept artist/character designer for Microsoft's X-Box game Sudeki. <BR>Since the very humble beginnings of the project, I produced literally hundreds of drawings and CG art pieces through the years of its development, as well as adding my own finishing touches to various pieces of Sudeki marketing art. <BR>Aside from the games industry, I've taken on numerous art commissions over the years and my work has found a variety of outlets, including: <BR>Merchandising, marketing and website art for Japanese rock musicians JO:YA and Duel Jewel <BR>CD covers and T-shirt designs for Anime Radio <BR>CD cover art for "Anime Toonz Vol. 2" CD released by Jellybean Recordings of New York <BR>Art showcased in New York at "Gamers' Nite Groove" event <BR>Various art pieces for anime convention books and promotions <BR>Pantomime poster art <BR>On-the-spot caricatures <BR>Various character design related projects, i.e. promotional characters and mascots <BR>Vehicle concept design <BR>Sci-fi and high fantasy artwork <BR>Working in an art studio producing designs for animatronic displays and theming projects <BR>Anthropomorphic/"furry" art and other cartoon styles <BR>Photo re-touching/manipulation <BR>Personal online manga comic project <BR>Small press manga comic work <BR>Illustrative art for print in magazines <BR>Pixel art: Animated .gif files, window-sitter mascots and 2D game sprites (Palm PC, Game Boy Advance etc.) <BR>Model-making and doll customisation <BR>Print designs for a major guitar strap manufacturer <BR>Fashion designs for print on clothing and accessories <BR>Greetings card designs and other 'cute' art. <P>Although cartoon and anime-style art is a particularly strong element in my portfolio, it's certainly not all that I am capable of. I'm confident that I am a flexible artist able to work in a wide range of styles and media. <BR>Currently I am freelancing. Recent jobs include producing artwork for an interactive language education package for use in schools, and working as an art director for 2D handheld console games. |
