I have been an artist and illustrator my entire life, and I have embraced the modern methods of illustration as I've grown. From Crayons to markers, acrylic paints to airbrush, Illustrator 88 to 3D Studio Max. The tools keep changing, and I have changed with them. 3D Rendering and Animation 3D renderings are a form of illustration. In the three dimensional digital world, I can control scale, texture and lighting to generate realistic 3D illustrations. My intuitive sense of mechanics and construction have aided me in both constructing 3D models and in animating their kinetic properties. My knowledge of photography and lighting shows through in my renderings. Traditional Illustration Actual pencil and paper, is another skill and talent that I can provide. For many years I neglected this aspect of my abilities and now realize that this is a skill that deserves more attention. I am excited to expand this avenue of my artistic talent in the future. Photography Starting as a hobby, my photography has also developed into another marketable resource. I primarily shoot High School Senior portraits, sports and weddings... but to be honest, these subjects are no different than shooting a CEO or a group of Lawyers. I just haven't had the opportunity... yet. Please, take a look at my web site, send me some feedback, or if I'm lucky, call me to discuss your project and see how I can help you. http://www.BManthey.com (My site may be under construction... but check back soon!)
