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:

Uwe, what a talent you are my friend, to sit here and try to say anything but that this is just awsome, would be a waste of bandwith. There is nothing I could even begin to find wrong with this or nothing i could say to make it better, you my friend are the best.............V...John

YAY!!! happy tutorial dance Heh, not as easy as they seem, are they? Makes me appreciate them so much more now :P LOVE the image! ...was sort of disappointed by the lack of a melted clock though grinning You're picking up painter like a natural, I must say. I dont think I've tried the combo of watercolors and oils too much, I think I'll need to poke at that one a bit. You might also want to try out the chalks here and there with your oils. They add a great texture and are the perfect thing when you want to add those sharper highlights without losing the natural feel of the work. Now.. go paint my clock! :P
