Pond at Dawn
Edition 1 of 1
1080 x 1080px. 24fps. I’ve a very deep love for rain and rainy days. Unlike most who love warmth and sun, I much prefer cool, rainy and foggy days. Living in Donegal, Ireland I’m lucky to live in such a wonderful place that inspires me all the time with ideas for tiny worlds to build full of color and shape. This piece is from my “Rainy Days” series where I’ve used Zbrush to sculpt every frame of the rain splashes. I wanted to maintain a stylized and playful look that I’ve always strived to achieve in my work since the start of my career as an artist. I could have tried particle effects or other, faster methods, but I didn’t want to break the design of the world so sculpting the rain was my only option. With “Pond at Dawn” I wanted to use dusty pinks and lilacs with deeper purples and warm yellow lights to simulate a light rain shower at dawn.

Polysketch – Ink Warrior
Edition 1 of 1
This piece was the first made for the Polyscketch – Clay Collection and represents a warrior on the battlefield. Imagine freezing time in the middle of a fight, feel the wind blowing, perceive the speed of the movements and the dexterity of the character represented by the dynamic and cutting line of the sculpture. // Polyscketch is a sculptural technique that blends digital sculpture and concept art. Designed at the end of 2012 by the artist, it was immediately appreciated. This and other works made with the same technique have been published in magazines of the trade or have become the covers of novels. // Artwork size : 4339 x 2000 pixels 1/1, Single Edition.

PC_Flower_Vase 001
Edition 1 of 1
This unique digital painting originates from Rhizome’s Seven on Seven 10th Edition at the New Museum which I worked on with Carl Tashian. Carl wrote a Photoshop script which gently cycles through layers of my painting file. Since 2010, I have been painting in Photoshop in a method where almost every brushstroke you see is on its own layer. The script subtly animates the framework of the brushstrokes and architecture of the painting and reveals different versions. This is an ongoing theme in my work, exploring the fluid relationship between painting and video.

LAINE KELLY _ Cosmo Surfing, Globe Trotting, Deep Feeling, Film Making, Visual Artist. The child in me has always wanted to be creating art. At 4, I went to Disney World for the first time and I didn’t want to go on any rides; all I wanted to do was watch the caricature artist draw. Finding the dance to a creative flow is my daily ritual. I sink deeply into the micro moments. Feel it all. I’d love to share a piece of my (H)ART with you. Follow me on TWITTER @crypto_hart & INSTA @mixedmedia.
CRYPTO_HART 01
Edition 1 of 1
I have been drawing anatomical hearts for as long as I can remember. The heart represents the source of where I am creating from, the center of my being. I chose this artwork to be my SR genesis piece because it gives you a sense of where I’ve been AND where I’m going as a visual artist. I plan to release a very limited amount of “CRYPTO (H)ARTs” this being the very first one. I had a sense of massive change looming for the past couple of years in both myself and my career. Now, I can clearly see where I am going. This is just the beginning and I hope you’ll join me in this next chapter.

Edition 1 of 1
In the history of western civilization no other genre of music has created such a magnitude of lyrical content about cats. From Kanye West stating “I put the pussy in the sarcophagus” on his “My Beautiful Dark Twisted” album. A reference to how he shares a love and respect for cats much like ancient Egyptians who would mummify their cats to be buried with them. To the more simplistic lyrics such as Eazy E proclaiming “I love pussy and pussy loves me.” This series is a celebration of rappers and their love of cats.

Fear The Old Blood – Blood Moon
Edition 1 of 1
When I was young, my father showed me “Jet Set Willy” on his ZX Spectrum. I remember being completely blown away.. What is this magic?! ..Now, over 30 years later, I’m still a fan of video games; I love playing them, talk about them, and creating art inspired by them. “Bloodborne” is truly an artistic and technical masterpiece; I felt it deserved art of equal quality. Thank you, Adam.

There’s ice cream under the dance floor!
Edition 1 of 1
I know there’s ice cream down there, i dare you to prove me wrong. This piece is inspired by our newest family member Mr. Orange, a hyper-active and incredibly adorable black cat that loves ice cream and brought so much joy to our lives. Also i have a passion for funky beats and dancing, and since covid entered the stage, i have to feed that urge at home by dancing with my wife and/or cat. Like with all my pieces i made the music myself, so you’re not just buying the animation, you are also buying an original piece of music, produced exclusively for that animation. This piece comes in 4K resolution.

Sam Drew (Lumps) is a Cardiff born artist, interested in painting, illustration and screen print. The subject of his works tends to juxtapose the everyday with the incomprehensible; tasks like the weekly shop, visiting a museum, or eating ramen, take on a surreal energy in the world of Lumps. Exploding the mundane of our world into the extraordinary detail and delirium of a Lumps day out is Drew’s stock-in-trade, leading him to produce work that is vibrant, mischievous and at times provocative.

The Cryptofixtion
Edition 1 of 1
Today we are consumed by technology completely, it’s become a new religion, and as an artist I find myself completely immersed in it, it seemed completely obvious that my creative persona THE LOBSTER should be on the cross of technology. Titling this first NFT, THE CRYPTOFIXTION, Colbert identify’s the role digital ideology is playing in the re-brith of a more digital orientated era for humanity, and the defining role art plays in such times. Colbert has created a global following for his cartoon lobster persona and his masterful hyper pop history paintings. His work powerfully explores the patterns of contemporary digital culture and its relationship to a deeper art historical dialogue. “I became an artist when I became a Lobster” says Colbert.
