HEY, I'M DOM!

An American artist living in Irvine, California. I began my journey to become a concept artist and illustrator in 2014. Three years later I attended Laguna College of Art and Design earning my bachelor’s degree in Game Art. From there I went on to pursue my passions further by working for industry clients both large and small, as well as guiding the next generation of artists how to find their skills in art, along with their own voice and identity. With a technical toolkit that includes Photoshop, ZBrush, and 3ds Max, I excel in creating cinematic environment art and "story moments" that prioritize mood, lighting, and narrative depth.

 Learn how filmmakers use composition and framing to create impact, and apply these cinematic principles to your digital paintings. Study film frames, analyze different times of day, and discover how to design scenes that feel immersive and intentional.
