Haven't posted anything in a while, but here is a brand new digital painting!

"The Ancient One"

Dragon Slayer Senior Thesis

Finally putting up my senior thesis! It consists of four bookplate illustrations for a book about dragon slayers. The illustrations would be at the beginning of each individual dragon slayers' story. The four dragon slayers are Hercules, Thor, St. George and Siegfried. Many sleepless nights were devoted to these guy, over the last semester, but they were all well worth it! Enjoy!

My First Picture Book!

This past semester, in my Picture Book II class, I created my first picture book, The Amazing Spirits of the Earth. It is a book of creatures I designed, that represent different environments of Earth. It's up for purchase on Amazon!

Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Amazing-Spirits-Earth-Sammy-Weil/dp/1484084039
And here are some sneak peeks: the cover, Mountain, Grasslands and Sky spirits.

From Last Spring

Here is a portrait I did for an assignment in a figure class last spring. I really enjoy doing portraits. It's my happy place.

Will Post Soon

Haven't gotten around to posting anything new in a while, but sometime this week I'll have something up!

Floating Daemon

In Gaming, we had to design a creature and then create a 3D model of it in Maya and this guy is the end result. I did the coloring, bump mapping and lighting in Mudbox, though.

Charging Warrior

Since I've been trying to hone my digital painting skills, I haven't done an oil painting in a while, so I'm happy I finally did one again. This is something that I will be entering into the Society of Illustrators Student competition after a change or two.
