Hello everybody, I would like to inform all of you that we have a new artist in the Pen Tablet Incorporated.
His name is Ben Wootten.
Art has always been a strong passion fo Ben Wootten, and combined with the love of fantasy, sci-fi, the direction of film, design and illustration seemed logical, but not so. So after eight or nine years in remission a bad case of the arts flared up leading to a course in Visual Design and a chance meeting that found him working at Weta Workshop on the first pass at King Kong in 1996. The rest is recent history: LOTR, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, and King Kong. Ben is actally a full time ilustrator for clients such as Wizards of the Coast, Upper Deck and Goodman Games.
