The Art Of Tobiee

(Via)

Tobias Kwan is an Irvine based artist working at Ready at Dawn Studios, the studio behind two successful portable God of War titles: Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta. Tobias has a painterly, brush driven style that's colorful and emotive, filled with movement. Slightly reminiscent of Jeff Simpson, who also emulates a more traditional style via a digital medium.

Trained at Sheridian, Kwan has kept himself busy over the years, transitioning from a more anime-centric style into a really beautiful, illustrative style. Like quite a few artists in the game industry, his personal work is a true departure from his production oriented pieces for various franchises, a common trend between visual devs who at times crave freedom from strict style guides and external (And often misguided) creative input.
