I am a animation storyboard Artist, currently working on Star Wars Rebels.
This afternoons iPad doodle is of fishermen pulling in their catch. My dad was a fishing guide so I have lots of boat and fish imagery floating about my head. Everything in our house revolved around fishing.
I’ve been landlocked now for the last few months and Its getting on my nerves. I really miss being out in the water, especially on cold rainy days like today. Its pouring and the thermometer is hovering near 1°C. The only thing I can do at the moment is to imagine hotter weather.
I’ve done a lot of work on the site these last few nights but still have ways to go. You should now see a rough version of what’s to come. I’m working to update all the pages and my portfolio at the moment. Thanks you for your patience.
Late as always, I just now finished painting this years family christmas card. Peace and love to everyone out there on the internets.
Sorry for the mess. I’m in the process of upgrading the sites. Its going to get messy for the next few days as I switch and upgrade all the code. It will be a lot better I promise.
Earlier in the month I spent several days working on this zbrush sculpt of a young farm girl. I was using it to test-drive a lot of zbrush 42R’s new features so the work was slow and a tad frustrating as I had to make a couple of the elements twice before moving on. Now that I have a better grasp on the app I must say I love all of the new options and am really impressed with how much MORE I am able to do because of it.
By far the most difficult hurdle I had to overcome while sculpting this model was learning how to hold and feed a baby in one arm while rocking another in its cradle with my foot. I looked like one of those one man bands! It was a delicate four A.M. balancing act that if managed correctly would allow me one free hand to sculpt and an elbow to press all of my function keys! It was a rather funny setup but it worked.
More zbrush halloween fun.
I painted this ArtRage painting on my iPad at B.C. Womans hospital while my wife was in labor with our twin sons Wiley and Rudie. I won’t ever forget when or where I was when I made this painting!
It was near midnight and I was in the cement bunker like basement of the hospital. My heart was racing and I was terribly exhausted and anxious. To distract myself and pass the hours more quickly I sat in the lobby of the delivery room and painted this far off peaceful place.
I have been very productive the last few weeks but haven’t had a chance to post about all of my new creations. There are a couple paintings and Zbrush sculpts I’ll post about shortly but my most notable project as of late, and the one which has kept me working late into the night, has been the birth of my two new sons Wiley and Rudie Sheehy! The twins have all of their fingers and toes and are as cute as a button so my wife and I couldn’t be happier.
Silas fell asleep while we were at the park yesterday. I had the iPad with me and made this thumbnail painting while he slept.
