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.

It's pretty good so far. I wish there for more formats for the storyboard template, since the zip file made me struggle a bit.

Loving this class, I came in with zero background. Learning lots and fast, thank you.

I thought this is an excellent way of teaching for people like me; short and clear, not too complicated just basic. The other half of that star is the want for more info. Ironic, isnt it?
