Sometimes after working on freelance all day long I like to take a break and paint something for myself. Lately I’ve been doing a lot of personal paintings for my upcoming book, but this time I decided to get away from anything fantasy or sci-fi related and just paint something from life. I actually initially [...]

Last night I attended the figure drawing workshop at the Concept Design Academy. Let’s just say that I am a little out of practice. I haven’t been to a figure drawing workshop since 2005. Hell, I don’t think I’ve really done any life drawing since 2005. Pretty much the only time I draw with real [...]

I am very excited to announce the illustration I did for the Mass Effect 3/Kingdoms of Amalur crossover. This was a pretty tough illustration in terms of approvals, but it was worth it. If you download and play the demos of Kingdoms of Amalur and Mass Effect 3, you can unlock two different armors and [...]

Technically this was the first CD cover I did for a band, but I actually had a different one come out before this one. It is crazy how time flies. I actually painted this almost a year ago and it is just now coming out.  Although I think I say that with almost everything that [...]

Back in early 2010 I was given the opportunity to travel to the headquarters of WotC to be on their team to concept the entire world of Innistrad. The concept team consisted of Richard Whitters, Steve Prescott, Steven Belledin, and myself. Over the next four weeks I was crammed in a tiny room with Steve [...]

Slaanesh you evil temptress of all that is bad; you proved to be quite the formidable opponent. It may not look like much, but this illustration was actually pretty challenging. Let’s roll through the checklist of not so very nice requirements. 1. Paint a guy looking into a mirror, but yet you have to be [...]

I must apologize because I’ve been neglecting my art updates lately. Now that I upload my newest images to my Facebook page, I tend to forget to put them on here as well. A few of my new Magic cards just came out recently. In M12 I have Call to the Grave and a reprint [...]

My new cover was just spoiled on the Fantasy Flight Games site. This is the Black Fire Pass supplement for the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. As always, there are things I notice now that I wish I could go back and change. The dragon heads on the throne are over too far to the right, and [...]

After I finished the ear demo and the male/female pose demo, people were asking me to do a portrait tutorial. I actually did a self portrait tutorial for 3DTotal, so I decided to do one of a female this time. This tutorial is filmed in real-time and took about 50 minutes to paint. This is [...]

Someone was asking me to post some of my very first paintings and drawings so that they could see what my beginnings were like. I thought this was a great idea and I actually found some of my old work when I was packing and moving earlier this month. It is always fun to see [...]
