WELCOME TO
THE ILLUSTRATION, CONCEPT, AND
PORTRAIT WORKS OF
TODD A. DAVIS |

Dear Web Surfer
Extraordinaire,
|
At probably the age
of three I started playing around a little more
seriously with my crayons then the other kids. I
always had some strange creature or amalgamation of
ideas in my head to toy with. There were points in
my childhood where I had entire worlds and histories
built in my head, each with their own unique
wildlife and theology. Growing too vivid and strong
in my brain, I quickly set out to release my ideas
into the open plains of notebook paper.
With an acting,
performance, and directorial background; I tend to
push into psychological concepts to create my images
and tend to find the hidden personalities within my
portraits and drawings with a visual dynamic akin to
the big screen. I'm an artist obsessed with the
character, not just the idea or look within the
image, and I work hard to maintain the feel and
personality of a piece. I find myself set in the
path of character concept work and portraiture.
My goals when
creating are to make as real and plausible my
surreal and unthinkable.
Take a look around
and enjoy -
