Busy! Busy! Busy!

Hi! Long time no post! Sorry that I've been quiet for so long.

I started a new job in March - I'm working as vfx art director on the TV show 'Spartacus'. Fast turnaround, tons of visual affects and lots of episodes - you get the picture.

I'm having more fun than in a long time. Learning new things again, every day - is also something that I haven't done in a long time. I feel lucky to be working with a great crew.

All that is the reason for not updating my blog these days - this job keeps me insanely busy!

Hopefully see you soon!

Be well - be happy! :)

More Guache!

Well, I kept going! So much fun!

Well, I kept going! So much fun and very relaxing!

Guache

Touched guache paint again after 10 years or so. Once you look at the painting it will also seem plausible that this must be like the 5th painting in guache I've done ever since I left school. Ah well, not everyone can be a traditional media ninja!

Old Matte Painting - Firefly Pilot Episode

I'm currently preparing my portfolio and came across this oldie. I think it's from 2002 when I did a couple of mattes for a SF show called "Firefly". This is from a battle field sequence.

On my own

My time at Weta Digital is over. I've been there for over six years. I'm very excited about getting out there again. Right now I'm working on some hopefully kickass portfolio stuff. Next week will be portfolio and reel assembly time. You might see a lot more updates here too.
Oh and if you're in need of an environment concept artist or matte painter, shoot me an email. Thanks. Cheers!
