Christian, Artist, Teacher and (former) Mensan.
I've been working as a professional artist since 1997. I started out working in comics as an inker, then branching out to do lettering, coloring, cover illustration, logo design, penciling, painting and art direction. Eventually, I moved over to fine art painting in Egg Tempera, Watercolor and Oils. I also owned an art gallery for 5 years, during which time I hosted 27 art shows featuring local artists.
I enjoy learning and teaching almost as much as creating, and to that end I have been recording professional video tutorial series since 2010. To date I've released 16 full-length (8+ hour) tutorial series through
VTC.com, 2 full-length series independently, as well as many shorter ones through freelancing (directly for the companies that make the software). I have become particularly known for my teaching on how to make and tweak brushes -- as well as the many brushes I have made available to users as part of releasing these series, or directly for the software companies.
I currently write a free web novel, work on my own personal fine art paintings and occasionally release 3D content as a PA for
DAZ3D.com.
