Freelance concept artist and illustrator Frankie is a recent graduate of California’s Cogswell Polytechnical College. “My art is all about trying out new techniques and methods of painting to challenge myself and to keep myself on my toes,” he says. “My day usually consists of me sitting in front of my computer and painting all day, everyday, with very little sleep. Many artists can probably relate.”

Frankie spends much of his free time working on his own series titled The Crazy Ass Adventures of Binky and Olive, featuring a shotgun-wielding little girl and her gun-slinging polar bear partner. “They are quite unusual characters,” he says.

Seaso n “This was inspired by an episode of Looney Tunes where Daffy Duck is trying to convince Elmer Fudd that it’s rabbit season. Except in this piece the rabbits aren’t so lucky. You’ve got to pay homage to the greats!”

2 Melvin Concept Ar t “This is a personal character of mine. I was testing out a brush pack I had recently downloaded and then, poof, Melvin was born. It’s always fun playing with other artists’ brush packs and trying to figure out why they have certain brushes in their set.”
