Description

I had the pleasure and honor of working with Patty Jenkins and her team as lead artist and co-art director to create the animated painting at the beginning of Wonder Woman. It was a huge undertaking, but I had a small team of super-talented artists to help finish it on time, and Patty & Co. were very supportive along the way.

Each panel was painted separately, and stitched together into one massive painting. We tried achieving a classical oil painting look, while working in a way that was easy for the animators to work with (which meant keeping everything on their own layers, painting behind figures, etc.). It took a lot of planning and coordination between multiple artists, but it was well worth the challenge.

The complete painting:
Art Direction: Raffy Ochoa, Houston Sharp
Mt. Olympus design/panel stitching: Houston Sharp
Studio: Aaron Sims Creative
Original Mural Artist: Raffy Ochoa
