Toifl
My name is Patrick Toifl, I'm working as an Art Director in an advertising agency in Vienna and I have dedicated this site to my life-long passion: illustrations.

My gallery mostly contains digital illustrations inspired by movies and celebrities using Photoshop and a graphics-tablet. I am not posting on a regular basis anymore. But I try to make as many works as possible in my spare freetime.

Visit my official website for a closer look at my artworks and for my Archive of older works:

www.patricktoifl.com

You can watch an interview and a 3-part-video of how I do my illustrations here:

My name is Patrick Toifl, I'm a digital artist with roots in pencil-drawings!

My gallery mostly contains digital portraits done in Photoshop using the Airbrush-tool and a Wacom-tablet. I also try to get back into traditional media, so every now and then I will post a pencil-drawing or a watercolor-painting!

My works are not vexels or vectors! All is painted with my Wacom-pen from scratch. Yes, I often use photo-references, but I never just used a Photoshop-filter to alter a photo! And no, I do NOT just paint over the photos! What would be the point of that?!

I joined dA in the year 2005 - but did not post much in nearly 2 years until I came back in Sep 2007 and that's when I took it seriously and posted my works on a regular basis! You can at least expect one new work a month!

YOUTUBE-VIDEOS!
Because over the last years a lot of people on deviantart have demanded it, I have finally now made a video-screen-capturing of my painting-process! You can see the making of my newest artwork "Jessica Stam" exclusively on my new youtube-channel! It's divided into three videos - each 10 mins long - running at 8x speed.

I also was asked to do a video-interview - so I kinda coupled these two projects. The final video is also on youtube. You can see an overview of my work in the last 10 years, me working on the "Jessica Stam" painting and answering questions regarding my art.

Hope you like it! Let me know what you think!

You can expect 1-2 works per month!

But I still have a lot of copies left and to get rid of the remaining 750 I am trying out new ways - so as long as supplies last I will give the copies away for FREE!!! The only thing you have to pay for is shipping! Please note that free copies will no longer be signed though! More info: patricktoifl.deviantart.com/ar…

WATERMARKS
There has been a lot of art-theft in 2009 and I had to see my work all over the internet without people having the permission to use it! So I decided to stop this and use watermarks from now on. I hope to find a way to not disturb the viewing-experience of the artwork by using these things - but you have to understand that I will not let this happen again ... There were even people who sold prints of my works on eBay ... This will not affect the old works as they've already been available without and I don't think this will help in any way - but new works will be posted with watermarks only!
