I could draw extremely well at 15, but it's taken me 44 more years to learn how to paint. My teachers were every other artist.

In the olden days, long before AI, was an ancient technology called Photoshop. And long before that was something called a pencil. The ground here is a pencil drawing, coloured in PS. And the balloon? Arial photography before drones.

CubeBIOME starts Nov 8 @ Cusack & Cusack Gallery, Kyneton, 4pm.
These paintings are heavily game-world inspired, yet draw on the aesthetics of the 19th century.

The CubeBiome series is inspired by gaming, but also draws on hundreds of years of painting history. Sometimes graphic & contemporary in feel, but sometimes being lost in all the joy & richness of nature, beauty and lush aesthetics. Often, hopefully, combining it all. Because game creation is art.

The Cube Biome series is where Rembrandt's palett, UI and execution paths intersect. With glazes. IF colour is > TRUE, = enjoy. Wander through sunset trees with endless branching, press E and watch the rain fall up.
