Scott Eaton is a contemporary commercial artist and anatomy consultant from the UK. His work, which is primarily digital, has been featured in productions by Pixar, LucasFilm, Sony, Microsoft Game Studios, Ubisoft, The Mill, and Disney. Similar to his employers, Eaton's body of work is incredibly diverse. However, one quality that continually takes precedence in his art is his dedication to integrating "classical" anatomy with contemporary digital tools to create new yet familiar pieces of digital sculpture. Additionally, he uses this refined method in order to instruct his "Anatomy for Artists" course.
I find his work inspiring on the grounds that he accomplishes much of what I aim to do with my own work. To explicate, Scott Eaton takes an existing visual aesthetic, the foundation of western art specifically, and adapts it to contemporary art to make something new. In a similar manner, I want to take classical subject matter and mythology, fuse it with modern philosophical ideas, and adapt it to a new visual aesthetic. Eaton's work is a prominent influence for my art.
