My background spans the disciplines of drawing, painting, filmmaking and animation. I studied Film in Dublin, and at the Tisch School of the Arts, NYU in New York. I later studied drawing and animation. Since 2005, I have worked in studios in Vancouver and Dublin as a professional Background Designer and Environment Artist. I've also worked as a storyboard artist, concept artist, and I have directed a number of short animated films.
All in all, I've worked for over 15 years as an Artist, Illustrator and Animation Professional. I've provided artwork for studios whose clients include Disney UK, Sony Pictures Animation, HMH Publishing, to name a few.
I also have an ongoing painting and drawing practice, and I paint portraits on commission, and exhibit my work in galleries. My passion is to teach others the whole spectrum of art skills that I've learned and developed over the course of my career.

Just what I needed to start recording ideas!

By Timothy Potts

Very well laid out lesson plan. Great instruction/Instructor. Easy to follow and understand.

By Robyn L

I thought that the instructions, exercises and downloadable resources in this course were very helpful for a beginner like myself!

By Robert Pahlke

Great teacher, very effective use of time. She makes the class not only very possible but also makes the goal of drawing well very attainable.

By Chantel Oosthuysen

Loved this course from start to finish. Very clear step, by step instruction making it really easy to grasp the concepts of drawing with digital media. This course totally made sense of a big overwhelming area. Thank you so much :)

By Carol Carini

I was very impressed with this course. Easy to follow with plain explanations. It wasn't a long course but it makes a big impact with each lecture. This works great for the beginner or someone who is more experienced. I'm glad I did it.

By Claire

Found this course really useful but also quick to complete. I work as an illustrator for my day job, but I've never made the jump to digital painting in Photoshop. This course has given me the key knowledge and confidence to start painting in this program. Thank you!

By Gustavo Gallardo

Muy bien explicado, incluye atajos del teclado, y todo con un gran sentido del arte y el buen gusto, doy un 4 1/2 estrellas, solo porque un par de veces no se ve el cursor lo que está haciendo y de pronto aparece ya realizado, pero si no serían 5.

Edité mi calificación porque ya apliqué muchos de los conocimientos de este curso.

Antes había dado 4 1/2 estrellas, pero debo dar 5 estrellas por la facilidad y la velocidad que adquirí para trabajar gracias a algunas explicaciones de Siobhan Twomey.

Gran curso, gracias.

It is never too late to learn more experience.....It would be helpful to improve my talent....I will arrange something new art for my portfolio to show some people who may buy or hire me freelancing in the future.
