I was hired by Nickelodeon Animation as a freelance background painter for the network television series Monster High. Within a couple months, I moved into a full-time role with the show. I've done work on environments, characters, and over 300+ props on show. I've also created a number of illustrated hi-res images for some props that are beautiful on their own. Additionally, the show called for various magic, spell, and super-human effects that needed design direction. Below are some choice assets I painted for both seasons of the show. A few of the assets show example pages of texture callouts.
