Hello, my name is Simon, aka cismol. . .
I have always taken photographs and remember getting my first digital camera, iphone and my first Digital SLR and how photography changed.
I have always taken photographs and remember getting my first digital camera, iphone and my first Digital SLR and how photography changed.
I studied Design at Middlesex University in the 90's and now explore my own art, photography and drawing patterns.
For many years I have drawn patterns that have a simple set of rules. It was obvious that I could scan them into photoshop and add colour and explore different variations of these patterns, how the shapes relate to each other and the overall composition.I also then moved into 3D.
You can look at the shapes within these patterns and our visual brain wants to give them meaning, it fills in the gaps, a bit like seeing accidental shapes in the clouds - pareidolia.
