Concept artist and Illustrator for the Video game and Film Industries. I produce assets as a Freelance artist for various companies
including everything from props, to characters, creatures, environments, structures, animals, illustrations, icons, isometric wall tile
designs and more.
In regard to any Companies or Individuals
interested in hiring me for freelance or potential full time positions. Please feel free to contact me using my e-mail address
E-mail: MikeCorriero@gmail.com
Or if you prefer you can contact me via myspace's messaging service. I will disclose my rates and availability in private. I do accept Commissions from individuals through e-mail the details can be discussed.
I would prefer any fans interested in sending me a message or receiving feedback or helpful advice about art related subjects to do so
in my comments box, or myspace messaging service. Please do not send me inquiries of this nature or regarding non-paying jobs to
my e-mail address, they will most likely be passed over. I do try to respond to everyone when possible, but if I do not get back to
you in answer to your questions just realize I may be very busy.
Concerning Non-Paying Jobs, I do not accept these jobs and will very likely not respond unless for some reason something catches
my attention which is unlikely. I can't afford to work for free, I too have to eat and pay bills like the rest of the world.
Thanks

PLEASE no youtube videos, I will not accept them. Also no music codes and try to keep posting images down to a maximum of 3 in one post. Thanks
I hope you'll get over the cold soon. I had one, too last week. Annoyed the heck out of me. I am currently browsing myspace and try to find people I know or met from the artist world, that's how I came across you. :)
Just in case anyone is interested, I stopped html on my page because I was tired of the people who would just post big ass banners and posters promoting a DJ gig, or Club night telling people to come check out their page neglecting to even acknowledge someone (myself) runs this myspace page lol. I'll probably allow html again at some point but I just had to see the difference in people using my page as promotion compared to people interested in my work, or just wanting to chat.
Thanks for the ADD, Mike! I think you'll like this...
