Miles Teves - Conceptual Artist

Miles Teves is a painter and a sculptor working as a conceptual designer for film, television, and computer games. A child of the 60's and 70's, Miles was raised on a steady stream of pop-culture including Godzilla, Batman, Star Trek, Whacky Packages, Plop Magazine, old horror and sci-fi films and Monty Python. He began working in the Hollywood entertainment industry in 1984 and has been at it ever since.

In a stroke of fate Rob Bottin hired the young artist to work as a concept illustrator on a landmark fantasy film called Legend. Over the next couple of years, Miles provided character concept art for Explorers, Robocop, The Witches of Eastwick, and Total Recall.
