Dave Sutton: Graphic Artist


Dave Sutton is a talented graphic artist who primarily designs gif animations for use on the internet. He lives in the commuter town Sevenoaks, which is situated near London, England.

 
Dave and his partner Dot have a website called Sevenoaks Art  http://www.sevenoaksart.co.uk/ which features his, all original animated gifs. This site has been put together with original, award winning, free 3D animations created by Dot and Dave. Dave is the artist and Dot is the organizer who also thinks up the ideas for new animations and keeps Dave fed and watered. They both live in Borough Green Sevenoaks, a friendly little village on the outskirts of Sevenoaks.

Dave also creates Flash animations and Flash movies which can been viewed at his blog called; 3-d-flash-animations http://3d-flash-animations.blogspot.co.uk/ his work here is outstanding and well worth checking out.


 The "Acorn" Bus and Milk Float (pictured above) were among Dave's first 3D designs


Dave remembers when Elvis Presley first hit the scene. Music was pretty ordinary and Elvis was a breath of fresh air.


 When the Beatles came around Dave went out and got himself a Beatles style haircut. He had to be a mod just like the Beatles.


Animated Traffic Light


 The Artist's Pallet is one which Dave (and all artists around the world) can relate to

Dave had been approached by Stan Laundon, an ex BBC musician and presenter, to create a Fender Guitar animation.

    1. I use several programs and have a good knowledge of CAD software to build the original 3D model.
      My technique is completely different to many other animators.

      This link explains more.
