Professional illustrator/storyboard artist/comic artist living in Los Angeles, CA. Always had an interest in drawing and film since childhood. Drew my own comics and made little animated super-8 films with my twin brother growing up in Sacramento, CA. Went to The Academy of Art/USF in San Francisco.

Stayed there for 13 years, doing art for feature films and commercials including Ghostbusters 2, The Mask, The Phantom Menace, Men In Black, The Mummy. Left the Bay area for greener pastures and headed for Los Angeles on that fateful day of 9-11, dragging my girlfriend with me. After becoming a freelancer, I worked on Terminator 3, Day After Tomorrow, Chronicles of Riddick, Bolden, Rush Hour 3, The Incredible Hulk.

Ahhhh...Nothing like SPAM for Christmas. : (
I was wondering what the shoes' list was from 'coco'-- I just assumed these were all clients! :0
Anyhow, sent a mail to you (but it's been little awhile since I used the address), but in case, thanks the card- it's awesome! Got a great laugh out of it, because it looks so authentic-
And- wish you & D. the best this holiday & a great new year, too! :)
You have an EC cover for Halloween and now one for Christmas. You should have one for every holiday of the year!
Hi Benton, I'm trying to get in touch with you regarding storyboarding a feature. The story is set in 500BC in Norther India. Could you please send me your contact email so I could send you further details. My email: emmanuel@kpics.net
Thank you,

Hi Benton! Really impressive piece!
Let me tell you one thing... I've just got a super gift for Christmas - two amazing sketchbooks and a card that looks just like this one:)
Thank you, you've got a great talent, the way you draw girls - in particular - has something very special. Not to mention the life drawings, the superheroes pinups... and all the rest!
Happy new year!

wow! terror on holidays! haha...nice concept... never heard of terror holidays, why don't you try using rough toned pencil storyboard. i'm a storyboard artist and I used the same technique.
Thanks to all for your comments!
