American Fork concept artist has helped guide the look of big movies, including the new ‘Aquaman’

As a concept artist and illustrator for movies, the 56-year-old Utah artist has applied his imagination to Gotham City, a web-slinger in New York, the Pirates of the Caribbean, and good chunks of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Now, another world that he had a hand in designing — the undersea wonders of DC Comics’ “Aquaman” — will attract moviegoers worldwide. (The movie opens nationwide Friday.)

“It’s always exciting seeing the things you worked on,” Carson said from his American Fork home this week.
