Hi. My name’s Brendan. I’ve been working as an artist and writer in the TV and videogames industries for 13 years. I’m from a place called Adelaide in South Australia.
When I was fourteen, my dream job was to work in the creative industry designing weapons, monsters and characters. Now my dream job is to spend all day walking around a forest painting sticks and leaves and mushrooms. People tell me that’s not actually a job, but that’s what they said about drawing weapons and monsters.
I began my career as a concept artist and have since worked in many other roles including animator, art director, voice actor, graphic designer, illustrator, writer and creative director. That last one is just a fancy way of saying “all of the above.”
Over the years I’ve been lucky enough to work with a range of studios on many different projects. Star Wars, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, The ABC, Netflix, The Avengers, Microsoft, Halfbrick, Jetpack Joyride and Fruit Ninja are some names I might list to try and impress you. Are you impressed?
I draw, design, animate, direct and write professionally. I create music and voice-act semi-professionally. I play ice hockey, fish, and raise my three children very unprofessionally.
My favorite color is approximately #0e7448.
I know enough tricks to get by, but I’m still learning to be a real artist.
To see examples of my work head over to the gallery. For the rougher stuff, check out the sketchbook. If you’ve got a project I could help with or just want to say hi, drop me a line and I’ll get back to you soon.
Thanks for visiting.
