“Olivia Voldaren” from Magic’s Innistrad set. I really enjoyed painting the masquerade ball-like setting of this piece.

A two panel story on one card. “Struggle to Survive.” Kind of a lot to cram onto the front of one small card, but still fun to illustrate.

One of Magic’s first comic book heroes, Dack Fayden. I had the privilege of working on Dack's concept art, illustrating his card in Conspiracy and a variant of the first comic cover.

Do any parents recognize the geometry toy that inspired the art for this card? DREAMSTONE HEDRON from the Rise of the Eldrazi set.

After I handed in the sketch for ASH ZEALOT, I had to remove the face paint and stringy hair. It looked too much like the Gruul clan from the same set.

Does anyone recognize this Magic card? I remember zipping through the illustration in record time. When I have great reference for a project it is the best feeling.

Ajani & Elspeth reunited. “Solidarity of Heroes.” I shot photo reference of my wife and her father for this one. Ajani’s hand and the lighting on Elspeth’s face are the best examples of what I pulled from the reference.

An elite Boros captain leading hundreds of Boros troops into combat—and he happens to be a 3-foot-tall goblin! This is part of the art description for “Legion Loyalist” from Gatecrash.
