Summary

Hey, I'm James, my origin story is probably similar to most artist around here :) Drawing was a big part of my childhood that was inspired by comics, animation, movies and video games. After high school I decided to attended art college to further my skills. After graduation I was hired by Obsidian Entertainment as a Junior Character Artist and grew to become their Principal Character Artist. Professionally I've been a character artist in the video game industry for over 15 years. I've worked with different teams on numerous game titles, pipelines, software, and game engines. Most of my work experience has been from pre-production through alpha/beta periods. It's been a fun and crazy ride so far with too many stories to share, but for now, Cheers!

Here's a list of video games I worked on, shipped or in production.
