Brian Haberlin

“When an artist shares that they get bored easily and they are always ready to do the next thing, you can expect a life of rich creativity and projects. American artist Brian Haberlin is no exception.”- Beautiful Bizarre Magazine

Brian Haberlin is an award-winning American comic book artist and writer as well as fine artist. He is best known as the co-creator of the Witchblade franchise and for his innovations in augmented reality, pioneering digital art style, and detailed, vibrant watercolors. His fine artwork is superlative in detail, lighting, and creative character styling. Whether staring directly at the viewer, challenging them to comment on the tattoos on full display, or showing a surrealist composition that questions who is really the art in an art gallery, Brian’s artwork is playful and bold, and always with a narrative behind a piece.

He has been featured in many books and magazines around the world such as: WIRED, ROLLING STONE, IMAGINE FX, AMERICAN ART COLLECTOR, and BEAUTIFUL BIZARRE to name just a few.

Brian routinely speaks around the country and world from The Wall Street Journal’s All Things D, to the South Korean KOCCA academic conference and currently has 3-4 hours of his own panels each year at San Diego Comic Con. He is an educator as well, running Digitalarttutorials.com and Traditionalarttutorials.com, producing educational tutorials from his methods. He teaches comic art at Minneapolis College of Art and Design. His work is in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian Museum.

His fine art can be found at the Arcadia Gallery in New York and on his own website Haberlin.com
