science tarot

A portfolio of my Suit of Wands paintings for the Science Tarot Project, presented at the California Academy of Sciences launch. Cards one through ten were painted digitally in Photoshop, while the face cards were rendered in acrylic mixed media on 24×36" canvases. The four face card paintings were bound at the corners and elevated to form a central pedestal, creating a striking focal point, while glowing light-cube stations held View-Master viewers, inviting guests to explore the card art in an intimate, interactive way.

3d materials & surfacing

My final demo reel as a Texture & Look Development Artist highlights the full breadth of my work, from texture painting and look development to lighting for creatures, characters, humans, clothing, props, and environments. The reel includes maps, turntables, and a full shot list (click for shot list) - demonstrating both technical skill and artistic versatility across every element of surfacing creation.
