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.

Cool Pic:)

I agree, really beautiful image. I bet, when they have need for cd gfx, they will contact you. And they rock too, lead singer's voice is drilling into my brain.
Synapse
Thanks for checking them out :-) That's Justin "Jut" Bonshor, Idge's bro, on lead vocals and guitar

I went to their site and I liked what Is aw, even if some links didn't work for me.. and you definitely have created an image where all your admire, and sense of magic you feel for them and with them, becomes evident for everyone's appreciation :)
tuerda
Jim man, these guys need some getting used to. Don't you think it's kind of harsh to dump them on unsuspecting victims of conventional music (like myself)?
DarkShadeOfWhite
it's kind of wierd viewing this image because I'm not used to knowing what exactly the figures in your images are ;D It's a fine image with Synapse style though ;) I'll check out the band.
