Well, let me introduce something about my alter ego: "the fantastic filou".
In 1993-1996 i started my career while doing an apprenticeship to become a painter, with success. Later on, I decided to give myself an artistic education, that should help me to find a direction. Luckily i found myself to be able affording a private Artschool like the Ibkk in Bochum Germany, which helped me to keep my ideas and visions and project them into goals. In 2007 i finally graduated with a diploma work in Airbrush-design.
Even if i do not use to work with the Airbrush anymore often, it taught me a lot about art in general. Besides study i have learned anything about CG-art, Photoshop and 3d- design, even mixed with traditional media.
The main subjects of my Art consists of fascination, the fascinating and often bizarre beauty of mankind, and especially the female . The open minded, that expect old fashioned "fantasy" should dive deeper into my work, to find out that there is far more between elves and dwarfs. I was always intrigued by mythology of every kind, my work reflect lots of riddles and myths, thats why i like to illustrate.
At the moment, i am pursuing representation in national or international galleries and in the illustration and fine-art sector. Inquires are welcomed.
The virtuality, to bring together art and design in a harmonical unison, is one of my main-concerns. Fantasio Fine Arts is more synonymical for an emerging young artists company, networking and collaborating with a wide range of creatives and agencies from all around the globe. Also focussing on the area of Illustration, Fashion and Photo-design.
i loved your Route 66 piece on Raster 49. its done so well and enchanting, it makes me want to be a part of the scenery. i love your masterful paint style!
