Biography
My name is Graeme Mc Allister a practicing based in the
city of Newry in Northern Ireland; I have been perfecting
my digital artwork for the past 7 years.
My art is mainly symbolic in nature, due to my interest in mythology and psychology. I would cite the painters Susan Seddon Boulet and Salvador Dali as my two greatest influences, as I have always been particularly inspired by the surrealist movement and fantasy art. The impossible landscapes and strange figures of the surrealist movement spoke to my imagination and imagination after all is the window that we view the 'real world' through.
I enjoy combining the technical thinking process involved in using Photoshop with the imaginative concepts of the images themselves. This method of working quite often guides the subject matter I explore as much of my work is about man's endeavours to combine the material and spiritual worlds. My visual poetry takes these ideas a stage further giving the written pieces and imagery more depth and power then they could achieve in isolation.
