About Me
- Nathan Fowkes
- I do concept art, color and lighting design for animation and entertainment projects, notable clients include DreamWorks, Blue Sky and Disney. It's a great job but everything is painted digitally so I spend my own time painting with traditional mediums. These paintings and sketches are the emphasis my blog, I'll also be posting my digital work where possible as well as classroom demonstrations for the benefit of my art students.
