Fantasy and Kids
Wonderville Selected Images
I got this assignment from Science Alberta to design some fake fish for a place called WonderVille. These were just quickies that were going to be used by the animator, who I ended up being the one to hire for the project. Overall it went quite well for me as I got to try to make these fun fishies. I also had to do real ones that would live in the rivers of Alberta. I’m not showing them because you can google those fish and see pictures.
This is the only place to see WonderVille Fish.

Little Village
This was supposed to go in an educational game that featured Pirates and Math problems. Very fun project for me that was suddenly canceled. Luckily I had finished much of the background art for the first level and was able to put it together into this Painting. I have prints if you want them.

Virtual Villagers – Favorite Screens
I have worked on the Virtual Villagers Series for about three years. It’s a pretty popular game with the Casual Gamer crowd. I started at the end of the project on VV1 and finished VV4. I’m not working on VV5 because sadly all things must eventually come to an end. Arthur and Carla of Last Day of Work still consider the series their baby and want to keep working on it until the fans ask them to stop.
I don’t see that happening for a long time though.

Spelling Bee Rocks (the concept)
Eventually I want to bring this concept to life. All I need is a big investor with a heart of gold who believes that educational games don’t have to be terrible. I did at least get a fun heavy metal bee and cool tour bus. I just want kids to be able to play with them.

Old Fantasy Fun
I think all boys go through a phase where the only thing to draw is fantasy monsters and characters. Well I had my moment. Now I am more interested in real life but it’s still fun when I get to do them.
