Steve Prescott has been a concept art on tons properties, including nearly every major release of Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons for the past decade. The style of modern Trading Card Games owes no small part to Steve’s unique voice.

Captured entirely in real time, watch as Steve brings this amazing character to life through the use of color and texture.
