From 1987 to 2005 Mark Alfrey worked as a freelance artist providing special effects make-up and creatures for the movie and TV industry. During his career he received honorable mentions from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for his work on “X-Files” and “Angel”. His work can be seen in numerous films such as “Men in Black”, “From Dusk Till Dawn” and “Planet of the Apes” as well as some memorable album covers of the 90’s including Marilyn  Manson’s Mechanical Animals and AC/DC's Stiff Upper Lip. Later in his career he produced a series of popular instructional dvds on sculpting still selling very well today. In 2005 he left the monster-making business to pursue his own creative endeavors, the female form in particular. Much of his new work is inspired by classic pin-up art with influence from modern fantasy art. His work can be purchased from galleries, retail outlets and this website.   Recently, Alfrey left the movies to explore a career in pop art. For a look back on past works, click the links below.
