MENTOR PROFILE
Timothy is a Senior Environment Artist with 7 years of experience, wanting to become a concept artist before discovering the magic of creating your own walkable environments, leading him to focus on the craft of becoming an environment artist instead but leaving him with a good understanding of artistic fundamentals such as composition, shape language and the impact of colors on the mood of your environments.
As an Environment Artist he has worked on Planet Coaster, Planet Zoo, Jurassic World Evolution and Farcry 6. Teaching him both the focus on singular assets and the perspective of working towards the bigger picture while also growing more and more into a management role and helping other people build their career at the same time, which he finds absolutely fulfilling.
With his personal art he's also won Aside from making art he now runs Beyond Extent full time and has been mentoring and helping people get into the games industry as environment artists for over 4 years now.
He's constantly looking to improve his art and especially storytelling which he thinks is at the core of what makes or breaks good environments that can hold people's attention.

TESTIMONIALS
"It was an awesome learning experience and really helped me get my art to the next level to the point where some studios have genuinely been interested in me, which is crazy. I had no pieces in my portfolio before the mentorship and now have 2 (3 if you wanna count the breakdown) which are (from what I've been told) solid. Tim is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and fun to learn with and will help you materialize your ideas to a full game ready environment. He respects your artistic vision and will give you all the tools and means to achieve it (be it hard technical stuff or more abstract creative stuff). He also helps a lot with career advice and is always available to discuss stuff to help you out. I would go through this again and again if I could. You'd be working at your pace, the schedule being tailored to your needs and you'd define with him what you wanna talk about and work on each session. I went in excited but also super nervous and really not sure I'd be able to improve my art (though this had nothing to do with Tim, just the good ole impostor syndrome) and got out with invaluable lifetime knowledge 10x worth the actual mentorship price."
