About Me

Hello!

My name is Will Pittman, and I am an artist from Ottawa, Ontario. I recently completed my degree in Animation at Sheridan College in May 2009, and since then I have been working on a contract basis. I am a 3D artist, painter, and animator. For the most part I use photoshop, 3ds max, zbrush, maya, premiere, and traditional media for my work, but I have experience with a variety of other software packages.

I have worked as a 3D modeler/texture artist for Silicon Knights, done illustrations for magazines, t-shirts, vinyls, and a children’s book. I am interested in any ideas, projects, or suggestions you might have, so please do not hesitate to contact me.

I really love the romantic period painters like David Freidrich Caspar, Joseph William Mallord Turner, and Jaques Louis David. Some contemporary artists that I love are Ken Wong, Nathan Fowkes, Bill Cone, Benjamin Plouffe, and I especially love Norman Felchle’s work on American McGee's Alice.

Other things I like to do include activities such as hiking, biking, camping, and cooking/baking bread. I enjoy reading a variety of literature such as 30s crime fiction, Thoreau, and some of the classics like A Christmas Carol, The Hound of Baskerville, and The Island of Dr. Moreau. I love period pieces, video games, the Star Wars trilogy, long walks on the beach, and VERY spicy foods.

Feel free to contact me at willjpittman@gmail.com if you would like a copy of my CV, or if you are interested in my services. I'd also be happy to answer any questions you might have.
