"The Yarn of a Mystery" - 47

I don't always have an iPad available...

(Digital, ArtRage for iPad)

But when I do, I like to create pieces like this. I think what really draws this piece together is the texture in the "paint," and the contrast between the background (black) and the rest of the colors.

"The Captain's Tale" - 46

Here's what spending extra time to erase and re-paint on the iPod Touch can do:

Like I've mentioned before — I don't really prefer working on such a small screen. But it's a challenge. And it's also one of the only ways I can do digital art at the moment without using a mouse.

Personal Results of the SAICFF 2012

So about that film festival in San Antonio...


I'm happy to say my team and I won! I couldn't have achieved what I did without the help of my team, especially my twin brother Seth. I also have to thank two of my other brothers, Jonathan and Daniel, for their contributions, as well as our narrator (whom we'd never met in person previous to the festival), Caleb!

The whole experience was exhilarating to say the least. And I thank God most of all for all of it — for His gift to me in the form of creativity, and for guiding my path to where I am now.

You can check out the trailer now by visiting the "Animation" page!

"The Wordless Question" - 45

In honor of Valentine's Day:

(Digital, vector-based medium)

I enjoyed working on this piece. I'd had the concept in my mind for a week or so leading up to Valentine's Day, but I'll admit what you see here is vastly different from what I'd originally pictured. But the message is essentially there, and hopefully it made you smile (inside or outside).
