Father's Day Paintings

The imagery of fathers and children has always fascinated me. Whether its Hector and his Son, Arthur and Merlin, or Anakin and Luke, its a powerful iconic narrative that has always captured artists and story tellers. Below I've put together a few images of fathers(teachers) and children (pupils) that I've approached over the years....

Enjoy and Happy Father's Day

Spectrum 17 contribution

I'm happy to announce that the Spectrum 17 judges panel selected my image "Ardent" from the Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook 3 to be included in this year's annual collection of the best fantasy artwork.
Thank you to the jury and especially to Kate Irwin, who always inspires her artists to go the extra mile.

Player's Handbook 3

I've got some fun illustrations I did last year that just came out for Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook 3. These Player Class portraits have been an exciting challenge, and I really enjoyed the designs...
Enjoy.
