Lone House

Created using Maya, Lightwave, Adobe Photoshop, and rendered using Mental Ray.

This is the wallpaper render of the Final Project for the Digital Lighting / Texturing course at CSU Chico.

This was created in Maya with textures created / modified using Photoshop.

Very minor post-production done in Photoshop as well.

Bee

Created using Lightwave, Adobe Photoshop, and rendered using Mental Ray.

This piece was the result of a group project for 3D Modeling at CSU Chico.

The concept was a robotic bee which obtains power from an electronic powersource which resembles an electrical socket were there would normally be pollen in a flower.

I also made the initial few concept sketches and a good portion of basic modeling.

CigHead

Created using Adobe Photoshop, Digital Camera, and a Wacom Tablet.

This piece was designed at the Art Institute of Orange County as part of a mock anti-smoking ad.

The cigarette butt that is his head is a collage of several photos I took of buring cigarettes.

Sarah

Created using Adobe Photoshop and a Wacom Tablet.

This digital painting was intended as a birthday gift for a friend and was printed at 18"x24".

This piece is an abstract impression of the woman in the painting.

The colors in this painting largely influence all of my artwork from that point on.

May still be hung in UPS Stores around Chico as an example of their large printer's capabilities.

n8chur logo

Created using Illustrator.

Simple yet bold and effective.

This logo is meant to embody the synchronization of natural organic form with technological synthetic form.

I felt that 8 is easily associated with technology (8-bit, etc.) and the tentacle like structures on the bottom of the logo give it some organic content.

This logo went through many revisions as I attempted to make the logo as simple and effective as possible.

StoneMan

Created using Mirage, Adobe Photoshop, and Wacom Tablet.

This piece was created for the Concept Design and Storyboarding class at CSU chico.

We were assigned to create an elemental with realistic lighting.

I chose earth/rock and spent most of my time attempting to simulating realistic lighting with digital paint.

anglerfish EP

Created using Adobe Photoshop.

This album cover art is a digital painting designed to represent the visual form of the music on my digitally released single, anglerfish.

The design was also reused as the main content on an event flyer for the Chico electronic music event, BETA.

Me

Created using ZBrush, Maya, and rendered using Mental Ray.

This is a self portrait of myself done entirely in 3D.

Tree Shirt

Digitally painted in Mirage. Imposed in Photoshop.

This is a mock-up design for an idea I had for a T-Shirt.

Mermanpus

Digitally painted in Mirage. Enhanced in Photoshop.

A concept design for an merman / octopus creature.

CD Art

Designed in Photoshop / Illustrator.

Used as the CD art for a promotional CD which was distributed throughout San Francisco.
