Talenthouse

I am a visionary of digital artistic creation. I mostly hand paint fantasy art in Photoshop as a freelance professional artist. I specialize at Character portraits and creating imagery that most people can dream up but can't quite draw or paint themselves. As a Creative Artist I enjoy doing Commission work for those who desire an artistic dream come true. Do you have a grand fantastic vision you want realized?

Bio Creative Artist with a flair for the fantastic and an imagination so vast, anything is possible.

Thanks for taking an interest in my artistically twisted little world. Yes, for those of you catching up... I'm working under the tm "The Lycan Knight". Just a heads up for those of you who may see me out and about working the convention circuit. Come and say hello, I enjoy meeting new and exciting people from around the globe.

Ok, where to begin... Oh yes, I wanted to let you all know that I'm still just scratching the surface of my artistic skill. Though I have come a long way from the start, I look at the road ahead and see that it continues further than the long ribbon of twisted trail I have left behind me. Though I have occasionally taken a reminder tour and backtracked a few miles to refresh the skills I have picked up along the way, I catch up quickly to fearlessly forge on. I use that to fuel my desire to eat up those uncharted miles that lay ahead into the unknown.

I have been creating art for most of my life. It has become such a part of me I dream about it. Yes, the dream world is where my imagination shows me some wild stuff. Those visions are what you see here in this portfolio/gallery today. I am in love with fantasy and science fiction. (Just don't tell my wife... She is still my dream Girl and I do love her more... just to clarify.) It is so much fun to create things that are separate and yet so connected to our world we live in.

There is another world that is just thinly veiled beneath the one in which we live. A new universe just under our conscious thought that sparks our dreams and deliver us into the realm of the supernatural and the surreal. The realm of imagination. I feel this pulse of the otherverse coursing through me onto the canvas of my cyberspace workshop. Sharing my thoughts, my feelings and delivering to you my wildest dreams for you to see in all its splendor.

With new ideas and assimilation of knowledge that I pick up from other artists, guides and simple hard experimentation of art, I strive to improve my self and my work. With determination and stubborn will the things that have been so difficult to create in the past are now easier, faster and becoming much more creatively -dare I say it- magical to accomplish. It has become more than art... I create a whole new world just beneath my brush. Here I can unleash the dream, revel in boundless possibilities and live a thousand lifetimes in a single work of art.

Influences Boris Vallejo, Frank Frazetta, Louis Royo, Julie Bell, Brom ... and the list goes on forever...
