One of Jacksons biggest and ongoing projects is called "The Adoration of the Magi" and consists of an oil painting and a digital world! Below is the latest render (from 2023) of the building and environment which I modeled and rendered in Autodesk Maya.
What's new with Jackson?
Originally created as part of a school project, Dingway has entered the realm of legend as a character whose personality changes on the drop of a dime.

Here is a render made with Arnold renderer of an animated model of my project, "The Adoration of the Magi", which is my longlived and still incomplete magnus opus. It was made in 2021 and the vibrant colors look great in print and will spruce up even the most drab living quarters.

$80.00 - $500.00
Here is one of my best pil paintings, finished in 2023. The orginal is owned by my uncle, I can put you in touch if youre interested in purchasing it.
Adoration Detail
$50.00 - $400.00
This detail is one of the best pictures of my painting, I snapped it back in 2018. This is the bottom right portion of the Adoration of the Magi. This particular detail surpasses even the current state of this section, since I painted over and sanded down the original and lost much of the detail, and have yet to finish it. The original photograph wasn't very high resoltion, so it has been upscaled using AI. All the work remains by hand. The details are impressionist and unfinihsed, yet it astill works!
Now on to a major project which has occpied my time for decades! It's called...
THE ADORATION OF THE MAGI
And it is comprised of:
☑oil painting
☑ 3d model

This is my oil paintingIt's 6 ft x 8 ft!
It's a building and scenery that I imagined over the course of several years, and is still unfinished. 
It's painted on about 100 sheets of card stock paper which is pressed onto magnetic sheets, and the board is painted with magnetic primer. I used to transport the painting by just stacking the sheets up and putting them in my backpack.
But now the sheets are fastened permanently to the board, which is actually 4 boards bracketed together which is harder to move! As you can see I enlisted the help of some elephants to carry it while traveling across NY:
I have painted 3 different versions of this picture not counting when i first started with paper taped together as I kept expanding it. I had the paper versions copied onto a new canvas that I then worked on.

This is my animated model
The above image is a "render" of the scene which I built. Maya uses a renderer called Arnold which creates very high quality images, or keyframes. The above image is keyframe #147 
My scene is far larger than most scenes, I have over a million trees, and lots of grass and complex geometry. Dealing with problems is basically what you do when your making a project like this. The render was tough to make work, and there are "artifacts" on the scene, geometry is flashing, but overall the completion of the following render was a huge achievement for me.

The above version was finished in 2007
I had the painting photographed and printed onto paper twice the size(17 x 7) and split into 6 sections to paint over as a separate project. Below is the bottom right 1/6th 
I never finished this version of the painting, the above 1/6 was allI did.Here is a video clip about this version of the painting

Original Paintings and Drawings
I'm using the animation software Autodesk Maya to recreate the oil painting in 3d!
I've been working on this project for a long time!
2023
I am looking for individuals and
companies to sponsor this project, or
collaborate to create something
truly special that can be used for
countless applications, such as
virtual reality, video games,
animated films, and just to build
something that's never been done
before!
