Indiana Jones sketch cards on Ebay
JoydeviantID
| Hello all, About time I filled this part in. I have been working in the art industry as a professional since 1993, originally as a traditional animation background artist for Don Bluth. I have worked on The Pebble and the Penguin, Anastasia, Bartok the Magnificent, and Titan A.E. Later I went on to work on other productions like Fat Albert (assisting in effects) and Curious George (digital background art). Most of the work you will see here is from my freelance and personal work. I started freelancing on the side in 2000 and worked in everything from rpg games to comic related work to trading cards. One of the best gigs I got a few years back was the opportunity to do cover art for Byron Preiss Books for the X-Men novel trilogy X-Men: The Legacy Quest which was on shelves nationwide! Later in 2004 one of my most exciting gigs was the chance to work for Topps on some of their Star Wars sketch card sets. Those include Star Wars Heritage, Revenge of the Sith, Star Wars 30th Anniversary, Clone Wars and most recently Star Wars Galaxy series 4. Other card sets include Lord of the Rings Evolution, Lord of the Rings Masterpieces I and II, Indiana Jones Heritage and IJ Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. My career in comic work is still sort of in it's infancy. I've done a few pin up pieces for Bluewater Production's 10th Muse and The Blackbeard Legacy, plus art for a future Sinbad comic. Most currently I'm coloring a comic series to be published by an established company but that's all I can say about that for now. I will put an update in my journal as soon as I can reveal more! In the meantime, enjoy the gallery.  |

By the way, I didn't realize you worked on the Curious George movie. I have a 3 yr old daughter who loves the movie, and every time I watch it, I analyze the backgrounds. Most of it seems to be constructed in a 3D app, but it has a nice traditional painterly effect. What was the process used if you don't mind me asking? Also - are you able to post any of it here?
(Don't get me wrong - I dig your Star Wars stuff, I was just wondering about the Curious George art)
Thanks again!

Yes I worked on that back in 2006. There are some 3D elements like the rocket and dinosaur skeleton, but a good deal of it is drawn by hand and painted in Photoshop. I think they may have dropped some levels of the backgrounds out of focus to give it more of a 3D feel.
I will have to post some of my backgrounds - don't know why I didn't think of it! I'll let you know when I do.
