Fauxvism Series
A series of landscapes painted from video games. These aren't from screenshots I found online; I navigated around inside of each of the games until I found a composition I liked, and then made a painting of it. I certainly spend more time in games than wandering the idyllic countryside. There's a whole spiel behind this, starting from frustration at 3D games slavishly imitating real life (though this has been lessened thanks to Braid and others), but really, artists should shut up and make pictures. Just think of me with my blue smock, sun hat, and luxurious beard in front of an easel on a hill in Fallout 3. Mmm, radroach meat.
I'm currently seeking gallery representation. Higher-resolution pictures are available here.
Prints are now available for preorder via credit card or PayPal!
And I take commissions, you bet. Some starting points: a 16" x 20" painting on canvas panel is $200, and a 30" x 24" painting on 1 1/2" deep canvas is $450.
