"His work is a grand play of passion;
his forms are taut with agonies and ecstasies; his images
bite like chisel and hammer. A monstrously beautiful body
of work."
- Ian McCaig
Concept Artist, Star Wars Episodes I, II, III
"His attention to detail is outstanding
and his design sense is vivid and extraordinarily creative."
- Rik Baker
Academy Award-winning
make-up artist

"Where are the monster movies!?" There
are none. There are lots of action-adventure movies, some superhero
movies, but really no monster movies.
I'm hopeful that
the day will come when Hollywood allows some talented director
to make another great monster movie like the first or second
Alien, American Werewolf in London, The Thing, Predator, or
any of the classics like King Kong or the original Mighty
Joe Young. Until they do I’ll just continue drawing, painting
and sculpting for myself, and sharing the art with you in books
like this.
