Sometimes, I’m blown away by the incredible creative power of the world. As an artist I marvel at the artistry of nature. I see breathtaking beauty and mind boggling variation when I look at fish, insects, plants, animals and people. Life and all of nature seem to me like living self replicating fractals that are endlessly evolving.

The Fractal Dragon image is inspired by this evolving creative fractal that I see as the world all around me. The dragons are similar, yet different. Some are plain and some are majestic but all of them have grown from the same creative seed.

The universe is incapable of repeating itself. Creation never runs out of ‘ideas’ as it continually changes and offers new, ever changing iterations. I could paint dragons for a million years and no two would ever be exactly the same.

The video represents 8 to 10 hours of painting time compressed into a few short minutes.

Check out the video to watch this digital painting come to life.

Enjoy,
David

P.S. The music that accompanies the video is a piano improvisation I recorded several years ago. There’s a stormy and energetic quality to the music that seemed like a good fit for the video. I hope you like it.

Aria

This painting had it’s public debut at the Tampa Bay FL Tattoofest. Each year I create a new image as the poster for this tattoo culture event.

Once again I was inspired to work with Aria Giovanni as the model for this antique looking fairy. Aria is a world famous pinup model and a classic beauty. She has been the subject of many of my images. There is something about her that easily embodies epic mythological characters. Something about this pose had me drawing from baroque and art deco influences.

This original life size painting was finished with windsor newton acrylic pigments and a protective gloss clear coat on archival artist canvas. A unique combination of modern digital, as well as classical hand painted techniques were employed to achieve a highly rendered style. For me, the modern sensibility of this painting is entirely new and yet somehow reminicent of Alphonse Mucha’s Art Nouveau, as well as Carravaggio and other renaissance masters who have influenced my work.

Wasp

This image was created as the poster for the world famous TattooFest of Tampa, FL. There is a crisp realism to this piece that I loved exploring. To me, she seems like she could leap out from the surface of the image and into real three dimensional space.

Wasp was inspired by Sera Ciminno who appears as the model in some of my favorite images. When working with Sera she takes on the personality of all kinds of imaginary characters and pretends to be a fairy, or a devil or a strange alien creature. The expressive qualities of her modeling inspires all kinds of exciting ideas. Sera has quite a few fans who come to me asking for more.

I have done posters for the Tampa TattooFest for nearly 15 years and Sera has appeared as the character model twice. I love working with her and have a feeling she’ll be appearing on future posters as well.
