drawing (pencil, inkPen and colored and/or graphite pencil shading)

 

I have always been fascinated by linear perspective in art and architecture, while at the same time I have also been inspired by the beauty and patterns of nature.  My work incorporates both of these themes.  The drawings utilize stark linear perspective to create images with science fiction and fantasy themes and surreal landscapes, with focus on depth of field and complex detail to draw the viewer into them. Some of my drawings blend the natural world with futuristic sci-fi images, and some of them features surrealistic takes on familiar landscapes.

I started developing this style in the mid-1990s, being inspired by, of all things, first-person dungeon crawler video games.  I soon realized that with perspective drawing, it was possible to apply this drawing principle to all kinds of subjects, both futuristic architectural settings, fantasy landscapes, and even nature.  About 10 years ago, I started showing my work at various local art events and venues around the Treasure Valley.
