About the artist:

"When it comes to digital art, photo manipulations are my specialty. Photoshop is my program of choice. In between actual projects, I make a lot of desktop backgrounds, icons and other web stuff too. Graphic design has been a hobby of mine for nearly 5 years now, and I've certainly learned a lot.

"I am a self-taught artist so I learn everything through observation and experimentation. I see what other fantastic artists create in their pieces, and I try to adapt techniques to my own style or I end up developing something totally new. I like to think my skills have improved over time.. practice makes perfect!

"Fantasy and dark art are my favorite genres for photomanips, because I think they're the most visually appealing. My goal with every piece is to create something mesmerizing to the eye. Stock photos inspire me, as do the surreal depictions made by other artists. I like to take a picture and work around it to see what comes out."
