Kevin Dart’s Summary
Illustrator with an emphasis on graphic design. I began as a 3D character artist for video games, and over 2 years was mentored by Jeff Haynie who taught me how to draw and paint. Eventually I gained enough skills to pursue illustration full-time and I moved to Los Angeles, where I have done work for clients like Disney Television and Warner Bros. Interactive. Most recently I finished an art internship at Pixar Animation Studios. I also sell books and prints through Fleet Street Scandal, a company that I own and operate with my friend Chris Turnham.
