For many months, I've been working for a small company creating the graphics for a facebook game called Teddy's Turf. This game recently went live, so I'm uploading all the work I've done. This game is free to anyone to play, but also has some features for paid subscribers. I'm not responsible for any of the coding or decisions in the game design, I am only responsible for the creation of the visual art.

Teddy's Turf can be played here: [link]

This is the main illustration I did for the header, which was pretty fun! I designed most of the header, except for the buttons.

Well, this was done in photoshop actually! I have an Intuos 3 tablet which makes it easier to paint digitally.

RMCAD is an excellent school for illustration, so by all means check it out! Here's a list of the instructors I had while attending, they are all talented people: [link]

Fruba In reply to KatieHofgard [2010-01-28 03:33:00 +0000 UTC]

you had them all? awesome, i have checked them out and i do like the school just.. its so far away ( im in new york city) so.. id kinda rather go to a school here for illustration

KatieHofgard In reply to Fruba [2010-01-28 04:33:42 +0000 UTC]

There are tons of fantastic schools for illustration in New York City, so if that's local for you go to one of those.

Indeed, I had all these instructors. The way art school works, like any college, is that you have various instructors for every subject. So there is a painting instructor, a children's book instructor, a digital painting instructor... Not just a single mentor for four straight years.

I'm still trying to figure out how you get the light, almost glow, in the shadows of you characters. It perplexes me.

KatieHofgard In reply to FireMaster13 [2010-01-28 01:11:26 +0000 UTC]

Aw, thank you so much! It's pretty easy once you figure it out. Have to think of it as a secondary light source, but really dim and colored.
