iDC-Studios was established in November 2021 as an early retirement project. As an experienced software engineer of 23 years working in industry, it was time to broaden my horizons and keep those grey cells working by developing apps for Apple devices. This meant learning new skills in programming languages(Apple’s Swift), 3D Modelling (Blender) and Digital Art (Procreate).
As time progressed, learning digital art seemed to take precedence over everything else and I discovered that I had a creative side that I didn’t know I had. Coming from an engineering background I found that my art was all about perfection and detail and therefore, to me, my art was never good enough. Then someone press-ganged me into doing a local village art exhibition and I haven’t looked back since, as you can see from the artwork pages on my website.
At present I have not developed any particular art style and I love learning new techniques and always love a challenge. Hence my artworks are all different styles, mediums and subject matter.
I have now joined a local art group who meet one morning every other week and strangely, I have been asked to do some one to ones for others who are keen to learn digital art. I was also asked to do two, 1 hour digital art demos to a local U3A group.
