This is an artist who works in the movies industry as a concept artist. He has worked on various films such as Ice Age, Rio, Monsters University and many more. His type of drawing is very original but, it is very clear to see the illustrations. Also, he uses very good shading and tonal techniques in his work to get the detail into it. I think his work is extremely beneficial, as his work will help me to plan out my design, add various techniques into it and present the characters clearly too.
