Welcome to Ventana Studios OnLine.


Originally, the focus of this site was to be centered mainly around Matte Painting, Illustration and Concept Art. At the time, my goal was to someday be creating digital artwork and CG environments for film, television, commercials, print and interactive media. It soon became apparent that I would need a better foundation in traditional arts if I wanted to be successful in that field. I have temporarily shifted my focus and am currently concentrating on the basics. The site will now focus on those efforts and whatever it is I'm working on at the time.

Hopefully, this website will serve as both a personal portfolio and resource for other aspiring artists.

Mike Sibley course on Drawspace.com

I'm so excited that I am finally able to get in on this course   My first attempt was interrupted by a very long hospital stay.   Let's hope that's all in the past.  I just can't wait for it to begin.

If you're not familiar with with who Mike Sibley is, then you owe it to yourself to check out his web site .  I first became aware of Mike's work one night while web surfing and stumbling across his website..  As far as I'm concerned, Mike's book,  "Drawing from line to life",  is a must have.  Soon after I learned that there was a Yahoo group centered around Mikes book run by Diane Wright"The group provides a unique opportunity to discuss the techniques discussed in Mike's book with other artists from around the world."   Mike himself is a regular contributor and will also be available to answer specific questions that you may have.  If you're interested, you can sign up at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DrawingLinetoLife/

So anyway, now i get to be coached by Mike himself and I'm just thrilled to death.
