Happy portfolio day! I’m a visual development artist in animation with experience on projects for Netflix, Avatar Studios, WDAS, and more, but in my free time I dedicate myself to paleoart in digital and traditional mediums! #portfolioday #paleoart #whodoesntlovedinosaurs
Low angle painting of a triceratops in a forest clearing. View of a resting Nasutoceratops. View of some young dromaeosaurs engaging in speculative arboreal behavior. View of two adult Tyrannosaurus rex with bright courtship colors engaged in a violent territorial dispute.

Mushed together some inspiration of fossil evidence of predator skeletons with visible tail spike damage from stegosaurus and modern wildlife photography of deer going about with the stuck heads of rivals on their antlers-macabre but fits the month! #paleoart #paleosky #stegosaurus
Stegosaurus ungulatus with the stuck skull of a ceratosaurus on its tail spikes. Small anurognathid pterosaurs fly about the ceratosaur skull, roosting inside and feeding on the insects attracted by the decomposing head.

Means a lot! I put a lot of time into designing a color scheme that felt appropriately “toxic” but still like something an animal could naturally arrive at- and to your point about dino defense structures, I think the color scheme really reinforces the “fuck off” look of the overall animal!

Ah thank you! Fun to really put something more gnarly into the world with regards to thagomizer aftermath!

And the color rough and ideation page! Thankfully straightforward of a painting, nice when that happens though rare!

Appalachia, 1900. Things ancient and dead haunt the green hills. A young woman — cast out by strange tragedy — walks the road on her wooden leg, practicing witchery and settling spirits. (The hardest to settle might be her own.)

Digital copies of GHOST DAYS are $6! Grab one for spooky season!
Ghost Days ebook — ASHER ELBEIN

Yeah! Honestly the skull might have been overboard, but good to try out a workflow to make one as I hadn’t sculpted a skull previously!

And then a little pan around of the blender sculpt I used as a base!

Ahaha exactly the reaction I wanted!

Commissioned drawing of a barn owl. The owl is drawn from the side, it has a subtle crown made of decaying sunflower petals. The image is very low saturation. Background is black. Multimedia.

Flow city concept art by Ali Eser. We ended up going into a different direction, but I really love these designs.

Outdoor paintings from a recent visit to Seattle- with this batch I’ve also managed to make over 100 plein air paintings this year! I feel I’m finally starting to get a decent workflow down, and to understand the kinds of compositions I wanna look for when I’m outside painting! #pleinair #oilpaint
20 oil paintings of various scenes in and around Seattle.
