Hello! I'm John, a photographer and aspiring filmmaker from Alaska. My work primarily consists of landscape photography captured on 35mm film. The image below was captured on film during a recent trip to Maine.
I'm a drone photographer that typically specializes in topdown photography. But this collection is super special ever since I first flew into the fog with my drone. Every time there's fog I will sprint out of my house to capture it before it dissipates.
This is the Skylon. Basically a miniature version of the famous CN tower, but a rare occasion to see a wall of fog surrounding the tower. I've always dreamed of capturing the CN tower engulfed by fog but I live closer to this one.
This piece, and a lot of my recent work, is a combination of AI and photoshop (though I do more). This piece is inspired by the Ariana Grande song "Needy." The line, "tell me how good it feels to be needed," really struck a chord with me.
Secret Escape is a renaissance-inspired team composed of a father and son. Romans with more than 50+ years of experience, and works created with pen and pencil on paper, digitized, and animated.
This piece represents the statue of Mosè by Michelangelo, hand drawn with white chalk on a black background, animated + sounds. The original physical work is a 100x70, made in 1973 and digitized in 2022.
My name is Patrick. I’m from the UK and like to draw in my free time. This piece is my “alien-like” character exploring my garden. I took the image myself and drew over it digitally.
Hey! I’m sleepy. I create random art pieces for people in the community. I never minted this one because it’s a rehash of my favorite VVar Dog, and for me, it didn’t feel right minting it. However, I enjoy minting art for people I see show up to spaces and just overall good peeps.
