Let's Down To Fashion! Part 2

Trying to make my females look less like Powdered Toast Man.

Exciting News!

A few weeks ago Art Order's Jon Schindehette delivered a call for all artists interested in having him as a mentor. Many artists entered their names with work examples, reasons for entering, and long term goals. I am honoured to be among the five artists he chose, as detailed in the latest post. 


Jon has survived the position of art director at Wizards of the Coast ("survived" chosen because I cannot fathom being working such a demanding position) and has many exciting things to teach me, and I can't wait for us to get started! 


Finally, here's an image for the Sci-Fi portfolio. I realized I hadn't uploaded it here.
