Lost Swimmer

A 64 image sampling of the rendered abstract and landscape artwork of TJ Silverlake.



"I work with paper, paint, ink, words, pixels, paperclips, dead stereo speakers, and other stuff that sparkles and grabs my attention. I currently focus my energies on producing fictional landscapes, the occassional color & form abstract, and random uncatagorized artsy things."



Fictional Landscapes are produced by first generating a 3D digital environment including natural elements; water, land, atmosphere, lighting and, often times, figures and objects. Once an environment is setup the artist travels through it capturing striking viewpoints. Each snapshot is proofed to the screen multiple times and adjusted, until the a final image is rendered.

Abstracts are produced in a similar manner by generating a primary image and mutating it until its forms and colors work. Typically, several image variations are produced and rendered for final output.

Final renders are sent to a print service provider for proofing and output with archival inks on paper. Scale is usually a minimum of 42 inches in the smallest direction and up to 60 inches in the largest direction. Normally the art work is face-mounted on anodized aluminum and with non-glare lexan.
