I like ambiguity in art. Uncertainty. What has to conform to the limits of our reality? Metal, glass and flesh can merge seamlessly, as if the surreal worlds and the life forms within are one and the same, and yet at odds sometimes. I rarely seek to endow my works with any "message". I am more interested in people's personal responses.
I'm a multimedia artist working in fine art (including sculpture), digital art, graphic design and various forms inbetween, also illustrating book covers and numerous CD covers. I also work in musical soundscaping, both solo and in group projects, of which there are many releases. I'd like to say a big thanks to everyone here who has supported me in my work and beyond since I began posting in June 2001. Too many to mention, you all know who you are... I'm meeting very special people here :-)
Update 01-08-05: I've been given a 4 page feature article in Issue 3 of the new media magazine Contour based in Atlanta, Georgia. The images printed very well and they did me proud.
Update 21-03-06: I've been spending the last 6 months living in New South Wales, Australia. Inspiring place! Also in the process of illustrating the book covers for a series of Japanese books called Hikishio no Toki (Time of the Ebb Tide) by Mayumura Taku - to date I've completed the first two of the five volumes. I've recently been returning to traditional media as well as producing the usual digital art, and contributed a sculptural canvas to a recent local exhibition. Link: Saatchi Gallery webspace
Update 09-01-21: I hadn't even logged in for some years. It's weird nipping back here after not even posting for 13 years, like revisiting your old school incognito. As I'm not active here anymore I wonder if anyone will even see this again besides me.

You did a great job adding color Jim. The gradient like appearance is super. Thanks for including links to the 3 detail shots, I enjoyed viewing them. As for another name, I think what you have is fine. Excellent work!

I really love what you've done with this and its certainly given you that extra edge these sculpture works needed. This one is now reminicent of a carnivorous plant to me, some rare bloom that only flowers once in a hundred years...I'm really glad this doesn't smell like one too! L hugest hugs Beautiful work my dear friend, thank you as always for all that you do xxx

that's awesome, dear jim! great work... love the dynamic in here... there seems to happen something... and it's a joy for the eye to wander over it... spotting detail after detail... never getting tired... great work!

Adding colour has transformed this in more ways than adding paint! It now seems to give off a dangerous aura; the detail pix confirm this. The present title then seems right to me, as it doesn't explain much. Looking forward to seeing more in this line :-)

Thanks Nigel, well you'll be pleased to know I'm currently adding colour to that big one I started last November! Thank you everyone for all your comments, it's much appreciated :-)
