I hope everyone is enjoying a pleasant final day of May. A few items to report today. First, Zazzle has been offering 50% off posters all weekend. The coupon code is “MEMORIALSALE”. If there are images in my gallery that you feel really need a poster, please post in the thread below!
Second, I’ve rendered a special version of “The Ride” for a company that licenses my work for greeting cards in the UK. I’ve brightened the image significantly for print, and I’ve posted a version in the Pickle Jar without Santa so Members can use it as a wallpaper year-round.
The multiscreen of “Pulsar” is nearly ready and should be up either later today or tomorrow morning.

Jessie and I will be at Northwestern University this Thursday for their “Engineering & Science Art Fair“. I will speaking to about 300 grad students about the nexus of science and art that is “Digital Blasphemy”. What do you think? Is artwork diminished if it isn’t scientifically accurate? Can art serve a scientific end? Art is in the eye of the beholder while science is universal. What happens when they overlap?
These are some of the subjects I will be talking about Thursday and I’d love to hear your thoughts. I am really looking forward to seeing all of the artwork on display and I’ll be sure to snap lots of pics.
I hope to have my new project up before I head up there. It’s a space theme that should spark some interesting discussion on this topic.

One thing I hear often from my Members is how they enjoy turning others onto my work. I don’t advertise my work (who isn’t running an ad blocker these days?) so I rely on word-of-mouth. Up until now I could only say “thanks!” but from now on I will offer something more substantial.
Refer a friend or family Member to DB and when they give your username or email address in the signup form I will credit 3 months to your account. If you are a lifetime Member I will credit the 3 months randomly a la my “Pay-it-Forward” program.
Thanks and be on the lookout for a new space scene this week!

- I’ve added dual and triple-screen versions of “Gotham Garden” this afternoon. I plan on revising some parts of because I’m not completely happy with the lighting but I think this first version looks good enough to share in the meantime. Enjoy!
