Digital Manips...




Hello,
Its been awhile since I have done or shown any of my digital manipulation paintings. Here are a couple, the first image was created for a play that is happening down in LA and the second piece is just an experiment.

Fantasy Art Magazine – Feature and Interview


Heyah,

A few months ago I was approached by a Chinese fantasy art magazine called, ironically enough, 'Fantasy Art'.
www.fantasyart.cn

Looks like the magazine just finished printing and also a digital previewed is up on their main website. If you are curious, please take a look as the magazine has also covered in the past big artists such as John Howe, Justin Sweet, Stephan Martinere, etc.

The website and magazine is only in Chinese, so if anybody is interested in reading the interview transcript please let me know.

Happy holidays to all,
-J

REVISED WEBSITE and Wasteland Remake


Hey all,
I have (yet again) revised my website for the hundredth time. The last effort on reworking the site, I created too many categories which just made the whole thing feel cumbersome. Well, no more and happy to unveil the new look. I've also include a Demo Reel which showcases some of my hidden talents as being an animator and modeler. Yeah, I know. Mister everything riiiight here! Hoping to leave the website be for awhile, but will do my best to update galleries as new work becomes available.

Speaking of new work! Finally got some personal concept artwork to post, this time around I am busily remaking my favorite Commodore 64 game 'Wasteland' that was originally created by EA back in the day. Its still an amazing game and not sure why, but the turn based text descriptions are simply awesome.

I'm going to work on concepting out the whole game, well... the look of the game. You know, the players, NPC's, environments, props, etc. For the first time I am really looking forward to working on some environments. As soon as I get another piece done, it will be posted.
