Artist | Professional | Digital Art

I have been drawing since I could hold a pencil, and I haven’t really stopped. I got into digital art during my time at university (where I studied computer science rather than art) and it is now my main medium, although I use mainly acrylics/inks and/or charcoal in my traditional works, and other mediums as my work grows and develops and as I try to find my artistic voice.

For me art is a way of expressing inner thoughts, questions, and doubts, and also of trying to, in some way, describe those things we cannot quite put into words. It allows me to explore difficult issues, problems, but also joys and loves, it frees me to express myself in a way that allows others to perhaps examine a part of themselves and look deeper within.

Many thanks to all who not only take the time to look but also comment on my work. I probably will not get back to you all individually but please do accept my thanks, its is amazing to me to know that people enjoy my work.

Yikes, I really should write more of these, been almost a year... so anyway, lets see whats developed from that last post... Well the premium membership has been a good investment, may not have made much off sales but the control over my wee corner of dA is well worth it.

The various live art events I have done this year have been fantastic, from Aviemore, to Edinburgh, to all over England as part of a tour. The tour especially was a great challenge not just in distance but 5 events on teh same theme with the same message and style each time, yet I did manage to create 9 pieces across the five two hour events, and while some of them worked better than others I did learn and that's important. I also had an awesome time with the crew/team who were doing the events and I shall hopefully be working with them again in April.

I think the journey into discovering my artistic voice will continue as its never a destination but a journey. I never really started painting more regularly although now I have moved flats (although it took until until November) hopefully that will change.

As for 2012, what can I say except that I hope that at least some of my art speaks to someone. Everything else is just icing.

So yeah, every blessing and joy to you and yours in this coming rotation around our star.
