Most of these are more personal works created in the last 3 years or so.
They are done almost entirely in Corel Painter, with some Illustrator and Photoshop when needed.

My work is largely inspired by my life-long love of animated cartoons. Like many a little boy, I loved drawing monsters, rocket ships and such. Like many an illustrator, I've never quite grown up.

It is clear why I love monsters and cartoons – I grew up watching them on television and reading monster magazines and comics. They were the pop-culture soup I was born swimming in. Wanting to capture these things in the days before home video led me to drawing and making models. Most kids do this, but a few of us, for better or worse, stick with it.

I also have step-by-step technical tutorials of the creation of a couple of the pieces included in this portfolio on my (seldom updated, i fear!) blog at The Painter Factory: http://painterfactory.com/blogs/stewart_mckissick/default.aspx
