My Bio

Unusual artist making unusual art for an unusual world! Where you come to see the unseen.


All my works you see here are original. The works begin as fractals, photomontages, photoshop works, photographs, and traditional art techniques. Currently I am experimenting with AI on some of my original works. None of the images I create are pure AI. I am not against it, but it does not interest me at this time. I work image to image AI.


Always starting with a detailed original image. These images could be an illustration, digital painting, photomontage, painting, fractal, sketch, an original photograph, or a combination of any of these. I am interested with how image to image AI can be added to the workflow as a tool in the creation of my art. All my works you see here are original. The works begin as fractals, photomontages, photoshop works, photographs, traditional art techniques or a combination of these things. I also work from my own custom models created from my own artwork. This also adds to the uniqueness and originality to the digital art I create. Currently I am experimenting with AI on some of my original works using my custom models. On a basic level what that means is I am altering my artwork with my own artwork with the assistance of AI. I hope that make sense to those unfamiliar with digital and AI art. This also on a practical level allows my work to be copy written and protected because it is totally original with AI just being a tool it the creation process.


I have always embraced new technology in my work and the potential it offers for new directions. An example is my deep dive into fractal art over the past decade. When I first started making fractals, I was told it is not "real" art. Now I am known for it, people buy it as "real" art and it has been shown in galleries. The same things are often said about the use of AI. In no way does image to image AI diminish traditional art. How I choose to use AI with my original works is what I am exploring. I am exploring how to use AI in unconventional ways. I choose to explore how it can expand my creativity. AI is here to stay I want to be a part of it to better understand and learn how to use it with my art. As a trained artist I feel the future will be dictated on how the serious trained artists use AI in their workflow. Seeing it is part of Photoshop now. Digital artists will need to figure it out or be left behind.

Outstanding , Love the colors and mind blowing images . Thanks for sharing your eye candy . Very awesome !

hi want to be friends

woww! really love your work!.

What is the idea behind your artworks especially the "sweet skull". what massage are u trying to give?

Thank you and I am glad you enjoy my work. When I work there is always some meaning behind what I do. However, it is up to each viewer to bring to a piece what they want and experience with it. I like whimsey and to present something you may never have seen before. I make circuses for the eyes and the mind...I hope.
