Dominic Sgro

The term "cross media" means having the ability to work in a number of different mediums. Conveying the same feel or style known to the artist. Very few have artists today have accomplished this with any degree of success. Meet Dominic Sgro, Tattoo Artist, Concept Artist, Grumbacher Instructor & Painter.

"I am a tattoo artist, painter, pencil artist, acrylic & water color instructor, concept artist, strength coach, salesman in the Fitness Industry, blog-talk radio host and small business owner. I truly believed an artist had to keep out-performing their last piece of work mainly because today's customers aren't interested in the work you've already done. They're interested in the work you are capable of. I thought vision and imagination was what set me apart."


"I get it now. Once I accepted I can't rely on selling my work as a living, I felt this burden lifted off me. If I never sell another piece of my art (I used to call it "work"), I'm OK with that. You need a positive imagination. I live in my head a great deal - reading, observing, thinking, spinning ideas around while I listen to music or workout; I need mental and physical stimulation to drive me now.
The determination to express my artwork can be frustrating but it's every bit as much a need for me now as food and drink."

Concept Artwork

A concept artist is an individual who generates a visual design for an item, character, or area that does not yet exist. This includes, but is not limited to, preliminary artwork, or may be required to be part of a creative team until a project reaches fruition. While it is necessary to have the skills of a fine artist, a concept artist must also be able to work to strict deadlines in the capacity of a graphic designer. Some concept artists may start as fine artists, industrial designers, animators, or even special effects artists. Interpretation of ideas and how they are realized is where the concept artist's individual creativity is most evident, as subject matter is often beyond their control.
Concept art ranges from photorealistic to traditional painting techniques. When commissioning work, a company will often require a large amount of preliminary work to be produced. Artists working on a project often produce a large turnover in the early stages to provide a broad range of interpretations, most of this being in the form of sketches, speed paints, and 3D overpaints. Later pieces of concept art, like matte paintings, are produced as realistically as required.
