It’s not just one man, it’s...

Zorro!

Now that I have added a little polish to my illustration blog, it seems only fitting to add artwork that
I created before the days of digital art. This piece was chosen not only for the unique western theme, but this is one of my favorite book illustrations I designed a few years ago. 

I love the ability to paint digitally but a few years back when I painted with acrylic I was able to learn many techniques to build solid artwork. 

To create this illustration I used my own lighting, props, clothing, photo reference and invited my friends to join in the fun to pose as models for me. I still use tons of reference to create my Illustrations, Graphics & Game Designs. But a lot of it comes from Mr. Google and Mr. Imagination.
