In 2010 Downing received an Emmy for Individual Achievement in Graphic Design and Art Direction for a collection of illustrations and animations of President Abraham Lincoln that were featured in a History Channel special titled Stealing Lincoln's Body. Downing based his digital Lincoln on historical photographs and two life masks.
In the years that followed, Downing created a series of animations of Christ based on the Shroud of Turin. They were featured in two subsequent History Channel specials: The Real Face of Jesus? and Jesus: the Lost 40 Days.
After receiving many requests from the public, Downing created two Jesus portraits - Jesus in Death and Jesus Resurrected - and made them available on our web store. This collection is an ongoing project and at present includes more than fifteen beautiful images.
Studio Macbeth has recently published a beautiful keepsake Christmas book that has received many awards. Please visit the book website here.
