HELLO!
MY NAME IS MICHAEL CLAY WOODWORTH IM A SELF TAUGHT DIGITAL ARTIST BASED IN THE U.S. AND THIS IS MY WEBSITE.
THIS PAGE IS A SHOWCASE OF MY SKILLSET AS AN ARTIST THROUGH A COLLECTION OF ART WORK, BOTH FINAL AND UNFINISHED PEICES. IN MY WORK I TRY TO BRING A FEELING OF DRAMA AND GROUNDEDNESS THROUGH LIGHTING AND COMPOSITIONAL STORYTELLING. MY TWO PRIMARY STYLES BOTH LEAN WELL INTO THIS MOTIVATION OF MINE. THROUGH MY DIGITAL PAINTINGS I AIM TO CAPTURE A SPACIAL FEEING WITH A MORE CLASSICAL APPROACH. USING HIGHLY RENDERED TEXTURES LIKE SKIN AND METAL
ABOUT ME:
IF SOMEONE WERE TO ASK ME WHY I STARTED DRAWING IM NOT SURE ID HABE A PARTICULARLY CATCHY STORY, CARTOONS. EVER SINCE I WAS A KID IVE BEEN IN LOVE WITH ANIMATION AND DRAWING HAD ALWAYS BEEN SECOND NATURE SINCE BEFORE I COULD WRITE. ONE OF MY MOST VIVID MEMORIES AS A KID WAS IN KINDERGARTEN DRAWING A PICTURE OF ME AND MY DAD WALKING THROUGH BALBOA PARK. AND EARLIER THAN THAT I CAN STILL REMBER PLAYING TARZAN AND TOY STORY LIKE I WAS ON THE CLOCK. BUT ID SAY THE TIME I REALLY STARTED GAINING A MORE SERIOUS INTEREST WAS AFTER REALLY SEEIMG THE TALENTED PEOPLE WITHIN MY FAMILY AND NOT ONLY BEING INSPIRED BUT ENCOURAGED TO CONTINUE ALWAYS TOOK AWAY ANY KIKD OF STRESS ABOUT IT. FROM ABOUT THE AGE OF 10 TO IVE NEVER STOPPED TRYING TO IMPROVE AS AN ARTIST AND ABSORB AS MUCH INFORMATION AS I POSSIBLY COULD. OVER THE YEARS IVE ALWAYS BEEN DRAWN TO MORE COMIC ORIENTED STYLES AND CHARACTERS WHEN IT COMES TO MY APPROACH.
