HOW IT'S MADE

Many ask me how I make my artworks and how I manage to have such vibrant colours once they are printed. 

I'm very difficult when  it comes to colours. They need to be amazing, they need to stand out. So here's a few facts about how it all comes together.

THE
IDEA

More often than not, an idea will come to me through something that I'll be feeling in that moment. The way I decide which way I want to represent that feeling can be influenced by many factors - my mood, the weather, the music I'm listening too in that moment, the movie I recently watched, and so much more. 

As I often say, my artworks can be divided into two styles, which I call Lumina (geometric retro style) and Obscura (narrative, dark vibe) and I enjoy alternating between these two styles to represent my thoughts.

THE
ARTWORK

Once I have my idea, I'll do a very quick, and quite frankly very ugly, little 2"x 2" sketch of the composition. 

Then I'm ready to draw the actual shapes in Adobe Illustrator. I'll just do the very basics of my shapes and quickly switch to Adobe Photoshop to do everything else.

Everything else means: deciding my colour palette, drawing all the details and shading, creating the retro vibes by adding a specific amount of effects, etc.

And you know what? Often at the very end, I'll change my mind completely on the colours. So I'll make an infinite number of tests until TA-DA! I find the perfect colour combo.

THE
FINAL PRODUCT

I create my artworks using RGB colours, which stands for Red, Green, and Blue—the primary colours of light used in digital screens. When combined in different ways, these colours create the full spectrum you see on screens. I use this format for printing to ensure the colours remain vibrant and true to the original digital design.

Printing in RGB is uncommon and requires a special kind of printer that uses 12 different ink cartridges instead of the usual 4.

I want you to experience my artworks as they’re meant to be enjoyed, in the way I know they'll truly shine. This process takes more time and investment, but the result is absolutely worth it. Every piece is printed on high-quality matte paper, giving them the best possible finish.
