About
Located in Southern Ontario Canada. A traditional artist with CG skills.
I landed my first professional art position in 1996 with a game company in St. Catharines Ontario. It was my first exposure to like minded artists all in one place and it was a lot of fun. Since then, I've worked on many episodes of Television Animation, development demos, direct to video releases, two AAA games and a 3D film conversion for IMAX. I'm actively engaged in my artistic practice today, continuing to paint, draw, and develop animation projects. To see a selection of my work, please visit my 'Portfolio' section.
My most recent endeavour is a series of original Shorts, script to screen, including music and sound FX. You can watch the first one at TonyAscroft.com
