PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS
 Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans2014 Digital 23" x 43" "Sunrise" has long been one of my favorite films -- as well as a giant of the silent film era. I wanted to give it the "epic" poster it never had. It was also an experiment in dealing with a new digital form of image manipulation, as I tried to give it a silkscreen / woodcut effect, using a palette of only nine colors for a nostalgic feel. |  Sunrise: A Song of Two HumansDetail So honored to have my poster on display for the Oscar's 90th anniversary screening of F.W. Murnau's SUNRISE (1927) at the Samuel Goldwyn Theatre, Monday, March 26th, 2018, and presented by the AMPAS. |  Gateway to NIMH2001 Acrylics & colored pencil on paper. 18" x 24" This art remains one of my personal favorites, and I gave a print to animators Don Bluth and Gary Goldman. It's been featured within The Hollywood Reporter (accompanying an article about the NIMH remake), and, more recently, Intrada's 2015 remastered edition of Jerry Goldsmith's score. While at Disney I rendered this into a 3D comp in After Effects. Go to my ANIMATION page to see it. |

 Harry Potter Parrish2011 Acrylic on canvas 24" x 30" I revisited my 2001 painting for a special gallery exhibit of Harry Potter artwork -- only this time the project took far, far longer than a week to finish! Inspiration taken from Annie Leibowitz photo of actor Daniel Radcliffe set against backdrop inspired by Maxfield Parrish's Ecstasy (1929). |  Harry Potter ParrishDetail |  Dragon's Lair2015 Pencil and gouache on paper, with digital coloring. 18" x 24" Time to be Daring! Dirk's pose here relied on a patchwork of different source elements from the DRAGON'S LAIR comic book, drawn by Fabio Laguna. It's only fitting that I give credit where credit is due. |
 Dragon's LairDetail |  The Three ThornsBOOK COVER: "The Brotherhood and the Shield: The Three Thorns" 2013 Acrylic and colored pencil on canvas board, with digital enhancements. 24" x 30" My personal favorite of the covers I submitted, this one done for free after I was dissatisfied with my previous efforts. Oddly enough, the publisher went with the original (and in my opinion, lesser) design, deeming this to be too scary. But the author loved it so much he used it as the central image for the book series' website. |  The Lost PrinceBOOK COVER: "The Brotherhood and the Shield: The Lost Prince" 2010 Acrylic and colored pencil on masonite board, with digital enhancements. 18 " x 24" |
