About:

I create digital and traditional art that convey the wonder of science, art, and a dash of sci-fi in our everyday lives. [that’s just a fancy way of saying that I love space, meaningful stories, and creating inspiring stuff]

I’ve worked on projects ranging from children’s book illustration, product design, and art collaborations/exhibitions. For me, art and design are inseparable.  Everyday objects should inspire. Million dollar paintings should inspire. What we create matters, and whether I’m creating a poster for a sci-fi film or a painting about Pluto’s utter despondence at being removed from our list of planets, I want to make it count. As Einstein says, “never lose a holy curiosity”!

software: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects. Cinema4D. CAD.

current experiments: Futurepast Design (think Dieter Rams meets Star Wars meets 2001: A Space Odyssey), research into the ramifications of using AI in the arts.

current projects: The Sciencey, painting series, book illustration
