I finally have something to post! Here's some new images from Bungie's Destiny. The derelict spaceship was originally a sketch by Jaime Jones- I was asked to add finishing details but maintain his original composition.

I affectionately call this one "Ketchup and Mustard."

In the future I'll be able to show high-res versions of these. For now, here's some links to images from Bungie's GDC 2013 talk.

One of my Destiny pieces, The Buried City, has been selected as an Into The Pixel winner! I'm honored to be amongst such a talented group as this year's winning artists. Thanks to all the folks at Bungie who helped make this possible with all their hard work!

I just finished a plein air workshop in Skagit Valley, offered through Gage Academy and led by Mitch Albala. It was a fun time, and I would recommend Mitch to anyone interested in improving their process around painting. He makes wonderful paintings, is a great communicator, and can scale his teaching for beginners or advanced painters.

Here's a few sketches I worked on.

A small painting I worked on a few weeks ago. This is looking east to Lake Washington from the Montlake Bridge.

This piece wouldn't have been possible without the work of Bungie's talented environment art team. I drew heavily from our in-house environment editor, Grognok. The original massout of the base was greatly influenced by Isaac Hannaford, and Joseph Cross helped out with the graphics. So much of what I do these days is built on the shoulders of giants!

Early concept for the moonbase. Hi-res coming soon.

Bungie concept artists are showing prints of our Destiny work at a Seattle art gallery! Proceeds to charity.
