I am a published artist and tattoo artist in Michigan. I am a penciler, inker, and colorist working in sequential art as well as specialize in pinup art. I mostly deal in watercolor paints and even acrylics, but I have dabbled in CG art as well. I work fast and can usually start a page in pencil and see it to full color finish in a day, (finishing it as soon as I get the green light to add ink and color of course). I work well in small teams or alone and always open to new ideas. I love superheroes, horror, and scifi. Some of my favorite art is dark and whimsical, or on the other extreme cartoony. I am able to work in character design, cover art, internal sequential pages, illustrations, and more. Just ask. If there is an art form out there I am interested in, I will learn it to the best of my ability. You can see my work on Deviant Art under my artistic pen name: http://sithdavis.deviantart.com/

My Bio Bernard Studio Gallery 61 A Revolution in Art Shades of an Artist Bernard It is truly remarkable to find an artist who is as prolific with his paintbrush as Shakespeare was with his pen. Like Shakespeare’s literary contributions, a similar impact is evidenced by Bernard’s artistic masterpieces. His passionate love of hues, shapes, and images resonates in the hearts and minds of all who view his work. The brilliancy of Bernard’s work has catapulted him to enormous success and recognition as a renowned African American artist. As a visionary, Bernard uses his art to speak to the world. He is deft in his ability to capture the beauty, joy, emotion, and most importantly, the vibrant colors of life. Bernard’s artwork is truthful and personifies the African American experience in all its magnificent life forms. With a brushstroke, his artwork conveys a statement- “This is!” Bernard was enormously well respected as both a Fine and Commercial Artist in his hometown of Columbia, South Carolina. After earning a degree from Benedict College, Bernard later pursued a Masters degree in Fine Art. Bernard also traveled to Detroit, Michigan and finally to New York City. Frustrated as a starving artist, Bernard diverted his career and went into the film industry as a Scenic Artist. He worked on more than thirty major motion pictures and still continues to do film work in his spare time. Upon the completion of two very successful films, Strictly Business and Malcolm X, Bernard went back into the studio. He moved to New Jersey and opened Gallery 61, a successful establishment in the heart of the Village of South Orange. The inspiration for many of Jackson’s earlier works came from his mother, his children, and his friend’s deep southern roots and the many images of the African-American community. His original and limited edition prints, and sculptures, expresses Bernard’s deeply cultured vision. He is the creator of several limited edition series including The Heritage Sculpture Edition©, and The Red Tricycle Series© (original oil paintings). Two of his most recent creations are The Indigo Series©, and the phenomenal new Jazz Legends©. Bernard is a man of many shades. His belief in the human spirit is a resounding attribute of all his paintings. His vision ranges in shades from subtly to bold. Subtle in his sweet and gentle ways, and bold in his passionate images. He is the color of earth, illustrating his commitment to his roots, his background, and his heritage. His artwork will transport you through a spectrum of simplistic, yet complex exploration of life’s treasures. Bernard is a treasure to behold!

In 1995, Keith J. Hampton opened his own graphic design and fine arts business. His reasoning was simple: To offer clients the same high design standards he had been giving them through advertising agencies but help them avoid the high cost of typical agency overhead and the unnecessary confusion and resulting mistakes of additional go-betweens. It gives him the ability to personally communicate with clients, get a feel for their needs firsthand, create a positive business environment and chart his own course. Since opening, he has broadened his approach to include scripting for video and radio, copywriting for articles, press releases, website content and more. His work has won national design awards and many of his designs and concepts have helped his clients garner additional business and success. He has been responsible for conceptualization of four coporation names/taglines and has handled the identity and logo marks for over 150 companies and products. Keith's design work has covered everything from corporate identity, annual reports, direct mail, packaging, signage, billboards, three dimensional awards, DVD and CD covers, murals, clothing and more.
