I had the idea around the timeJeremy Andrew and I finally realised wewere never going to have the paintingexhibition we had been discussing forabout two years because we were bothso busy. I paint canvases in between mygraphic work, but a large one can take methree months, so to get enough togetherfor a show would take a long time. Andthen I wouldn’t want to sell them. Sowe came up with the idea of producingcompletely digital art and then selling itfrom the web site, pixelbros.net. Since it isdigital I can keep a copy for myself andsell as many as I like, but we have limited itto 50 prints. It amazes me that some of thecanvases actually look like they have beenpainted, and painted exactly as I wouldhave done it with a brush.Concept. The whole idea behindPIXELbros is to get a network of designersand photographers to join our onlinegallery. We are actively targeting architectsand interior designers on big projects.An example is Andrew Parr from SJBInterior Design who has specified ourart packages for a multi-storey residentialdevelopment. Online it is very easy tochoose the art, nominate the requiredsize and specify required colours andamendments and be given an idea ofthe price. Art directors and ad agenciescan also use it to source stock art orillustration. We are developing a hardcopy catalogue that will be distributed sopeople can keep it in their product library.
