Well it's offical!!! I'm working for one of the premiere mobile game app companies, Backflip Studios! I'm extremely excited to work at Backflip a long side my good friend Thom Olson. The new challenges and the comradery of other artists is a welcomed new adventure in my life. Can't wait to dive in and get my hands dirty.

Talk about being complacent and content! It’s been a really long time since I’ve given my website a second look… I’m trying to incorporate a little more technology into my site so now I’m using Lightbox2 to view a larger version of my images and also Cooliris to view my Flickr Blog. I also added a video to the welcome page of a demo reel I put together a few months ago… I’m also thinkin’ about inserting a blog page into this page but haven’t made up my mind on that yet.

I’ve updated all my pages with a new look and easier navigation and simpler design. I hope will enjoy my site and if you have any questions feel free to contact me!

Resistance2 is now on the selves!! I finally got my copy recently and played through it for the first time. WOW! What an amazing looking game! Click Here for trailors and screenshots of R2. Here's another good article on the Autodesk site. Check out my GAMES page to checkout the levels I created on R2.

And if it can't get any better, I've recently contacted a local coffee shop here in Lafayette and will be displaying my photography there the whole month of March! The Curious Cup is a wonderful coffee shop that has great brew and is WAY better than Starbuck. If you're in the area, I highly recommend The Curious Cup!! You can even hit the coffee chop and hop over to the YMCA and check out a youth hockey game. :)

Well once again it's been awhile since I updated my site. Haven't had a lot of access time on this last project at work. It's been a stead stream of solid work this go around but Resistance 2 has turned out amazing. I'm very proud of the work I was able to do on R2.

Happy New Year everyone! I know it's been awhile since my last post but things have been pretty busy with work and the boy's hockey. I guess it's safe to say that Insomniac Games is working on Resistance 2! Here are some screenshots from IGN. Work is going great and beautiful things are happening on the sequel to Resistance! I'm quite excited to see the final game because it looks amazing so far!

It has been awhile since I've had time to update anything but the time has come. I have just put up my new and improved website! WOOHOO finally!! It's not finished and doesn't have everything on it that I want but it's coming. I do have screens from Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction and Resistance:FoM under Games. I'll be adding my previous games ASAP.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We just hungout here at the house and relaxed, ate a wonderful dinner, and watched hockey. Chris cooked an amazing spread this year and it was delicious.

Well today I finished up the "Personal" page. It just makes me want to start another 3D project but first I'll have to dig up some time.

I've joined Flickr and uploaded some of my recent digitally enhanced photos. If you want you can check out my photo's page HERE. The main reason for joining is an awesome photography website called PhotoWalkthrough.com. A friend of mine turned me on to it and it's so cool! Thanks Nathaniel! He has the students do photo assignments each week. I've learned a lot already and I've only done a couple of the assignments and tutorials.

Our hike to Lake Isabella this last weekend was awesome! It was a little over 6 miles but a very easy hike. The boys did a great job getting up there and back. We all really enjoyed it. On the way out of the park we saw 4 moose in a little lake called Red Rocks Lake. It was amazing seeing these huge creatures snacking on the lilly pads in the lake. What a remarkable sight!

Today I'm adding the various pages to Polytropolis. I'm starting to figure out a lot of the tags and commands in HTML and CSS.

Tomorrow we're hoping to go on a family hike up in the mountains. That should be a fun relaxing time. Going to bring a picnic lunch for after the hike. I'll try and post some photos of the trip once everything is up and running with Polytroplis.

Today I stared work on my new website. Based on a friends recommendation I'm trying to figure out CSS and HTML coding a little so I can update my website quicker and easier.

This last Sun. Chris and I went up to Mt. Audubon. What a beautiful place to hike! We were able to get up and back before the storm clouds moved in. I also updated my gallery page with a new photos section. Check back for new photos.

Yesterday Nakita and I hiked up to Mt. Audubon. 8 miles round trip and an altitude change of about 3000ft. Mt. Audubon's summit is at 13,223ft. Challenging hike and amazing 360 degree views! Unfortunately I only had my camera phone with me so I didn't get any great photos.



07.04.07

Well it's been almost a year since the last update. I updated the contact and resume pages. I'm back in Colorado telecommuting for Insomniac after 9 months in L.A. Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction should be on the selves in the Fall. Resistance: FoM has sold over a million copies so far. If you have a PS3 pick up a copy it's worth it!
