BIO
Short Bio: Fantasy Artist Uwe Jarling was born in 1968. After graduating with a diploma degree in graphic design 1991 he worked as a illustrator and graphic designer further on. His first works were countless covers for videos, books, ... and many technical and architectural illustrations for advertising agencies. An important step in his further development followed in 2000 where he started to develop his "Fantasy Artwork" more seriously and did his first attempts creating his art on a computer. Since 2003 almost all of his work is painted digitally for clients all over the world mainly in the Fantasy Art genre. Uwe lives and works in a little village in the south of Germany. Tools used: Fantasy Artist Uwe Jarling is a traditional artist using traditional media like oils, watercolors and mainly gouache, but the last years he did the step into creating his art digital. The last 3 years 98% of his images are created using digital tools. Uwe experimented with several digital tools 3d as well as 2d. For 3d he experimented with 3d max, Poser, Vue, Bryce and more nice 3d applications, but as it doesn�t fit him too well he decided to work mainly using 2d digital tools. For his 2d digital images Uwe uses mainly the software Painter, currently version 9, so most of his paintings are now done with Painter. For color corrections of his images or several effects Uwe uses Photoshop. All his latest images are done using Painter 9 and some Painter 9 and Photoshop CS in combination. Uwe currently �paints� on a Macintosh G5 using a pressure sensitive Wacom tablet.
Uwe was voted for January�s 2006 Renderosity Artist of the Month. Read the AOM interview here:

That looks so good--it looks almost like colored pencil to me, not digital at all--you are a master of the digital medium!

Believe it or not, I know how that feels. You get so bogged down with art briefs and taking direction from other people, that you forget what it's like to do what you want. I think is is a fantastic piece. Your skills know no bounds.

don't feel that way about commissions - push yourself even harder... I'm an artist that shelved my art skills most of my life... I've been jobless for weeks now - I would love to be having some art jobs.... One lady told me she was making a book and it was all copy writed... I said great, send me the words so I can read it and design these characters... What she sent me was Nothing - there was absolutely nothing there - that's been my experience as of late, no work and the one job I did look at I just shook my head over - you are blessed with work, enjoy it and build from it. I like you picture.

Wow. Amazing work ! I can certainly understand you wanted to do work for yourself. As a once was commercial artist, I found it hard to keep my own personal vision. This is superb !

It sure is nice to cut loose once in a while and do something for your own satisfaction. I like this 'Soultheif' you have dreamt up, very Cthulhu-like in design and ominous ! Well done & ~Cheers~

I know how you feel about time out,its not as much fun creating when you have been given some kind of request.I like to free flow to work at my most happy state!Love this creature,the evil is disgustingly charming!As ever you rock the fantasy world.As for the hair on my goblin,mask some lines with pointy ends from the forehead up and over to the back of your models head,extract at about .8,smoooth (a few times),divide and stretch with the move brush.I then clone the subtool and append more and more resizing and rotating as I go..:)Cheers cal
