I'm creating a lecture and have been doing some skin tone demos for my Photoshop class. Here are some that were done so far illustrating the attributes of different skin tones. I thought it important to do studies of artists' work in order to see how they tackled skin tones rather than rely on photography. The artists I chose were J.W. Waterhouse, John Singer Sargent, Wong Kar-wai, Wai Ming and Gilbert Stuart. Feel free to use them if they are helpful.In order are: Mediterranean, African/Middle Eastern, Caucasian and Asian
I was born in Boston, Massachusetts and presently I am living in the Pacific Northwest - Seattle to be precise, where I am teaching traditional and digital art at DigiPen Institute of Technology.
Prior to teaching here, I was a teacher and chairman of the Fine Arts Department at a private school in Boston.
I received my undergrad degree in Illustration from Massachusetts College of Art, and my grad degree in Illustration was completed at Syracuse University.
Although I'm devoted primarily to teaching, I occasionally exhibit my work and have had the opportunity to see my work in print as a graphic designer and an illustrator.
In 1999 I was an award winner in the Illustrators of the Future competition hosted by Bridge Publications in Los Angeles, California and in 2000 I was awarded Juror's Choice in the Falmouth Artists' Guild's fall, open juried exhibition. Since then I ain't won nuthin'.
Thank you and goodnight
