I'm a painter, turned illustrator, turned designer from Seattle that now makes a living as a senior creative director in middle of the desert in Phoenix, Arizona. Life is strange to say the least. A few years ago I returned to painting, through traded my Winsor brushes and Golden Acrylics for Poser, Vue, and Photoshop, and have since resumed doing commercial illustration for a select clientele. I mainly work in 3D, but almost everything I do is overpainted until my wrist hurts as I just can't roll with squeaky clean stuff - it's not in my nature.
Recently my work has appeared in Ballistic Publishing's EXPOSÉ, was added to Steve Wozniak's personal art collection, been featured at MacWorld San Francisco and can soon be seen on limited edition tee's at Barney's New York and Fred Segal Los Angeles.
I'm married with three cats and can't seem to have less than ten Mac's in the house at any given time... you never know, I may need that bondi blue iMac for something one day ;)

Nice work - looks like something out of a James Bond movie, but can't remember which one. Turan

Most excellent concept for this anticipation picture, makes me remind some futurist scenarios about mars "terraformation", but in this situation it's our planet we have to fix ;) I really like this well detailed render, congratulation!

Well I'm glad to see that the lack of an atmosphere hasn't taken it's toll on the look of lifeguards... :)

I like it's overall look. it kinda looks kinda like a travel brochure. it is crisp clean and very cool, well thought out and very well done.

I wouldn't mind if she was the atmosphere generator... she certainly does generate a lot of other things. Brilliant concept and very well executed!

I'm sure the environmentalists complained about the impact that construction had on the local flora and fauna, not to mention how it obscures the view. At least that's what they do here. Very striking colors.

a clever concept (dystopian lifeguards - who knew?). brilliant colors, textures and character work, as always!
