Ian Gorton
United States

My name is Ian Gorton aka Soapfish (from Japanese "Ian" brand soap and "Gorton" brand fish). I grew up in Minneapolis-St.Paul where I live and work. I can't remember a time when I didn't draw. I always wanted to be an artist. I grew up drawing comic book, video game, and anime characters. I received formal "traditional" art training during my childhood (ie: painting, drawing, sculpture) I graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2009. Since going to MCAD, where I received less "traditional" art instruction, I have moved to a semi-digital process where I work in and out of the computer. Shonen fanart is my current passion (it's too much fun!), but I am working on various independent, original works. ---------------------------------------------- Opinions perhaps worth mentioning: --Akira Toriyama is an artistic genius. --One Piece is the greatest series currently in publication, maybe one of the best ever. --Say what you will about the story, Bleach has some of the best comic formalism I have ever seen. Kubo's rhythm of big and small, black and white, action and rest, is flawless. He's also one of the most poetic Shonen artists I have seen. Current Residence: Minneapolis, MN Operating System: Mac OSX 10.6 |
I just updated my gallery with four house banners and text from George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire (televised as Game of Thrones). If you haven't watched it or read the books you should! Especially if you like fantasy stuff!
For all the work I put in I am kind of dissatisfied. I feel as if I had to compromise on my vision as well as the quality. But I suppose as art is sometimes, you just have to let some things go. Anyway I hope people enjoy them for what they are!
I have been slowly chipping away at them for a while. I also have a plethora of sketches and alternative concepts for each icon which I will post as soon as I feel like tackling the mess that is in my sketchbook. There's a lot of sketches, especially for Targaryen which I had a particularly hard time deciding on, so keep an eye out for those, as well as a breakdown of my thought process if anyone is interested. I also intend to do more of the houses, but I need a break from them while I work on some other projects and commissions.
