Comic backgrounds and character colors

Time Machine

These were done as headers for a mobile republishing of the book Time Machine, by H. G. Wells. As colorist and background artist, I was responsible for painting the backgrounds from scratch, color scripting, character colors and shading, and the final composite of the entire page.

Lines by June Valentino, and art direction by Louis Lu.

HAVEN

Haven is the story of a young woman who feels drawn towards a mysterious place— a home for old superheroes that seems perfect at first, but hides a dangerous secret.

As the background illustrator and colorist for this project, I was responsible for painting the backgrounds from the storyboard, color scripting the chapter’s mood, character colors and shading, and the final composite of the entire page. The pages were designed to be read in a vertical scrolling format.

Various

These are various character colors, backgrounds, and comic color samples that I’ve done in the past, to give a general sense of my range and flexibility in working in different styles.
