Scientific American says, “Osti, who now teaches scientific illustration at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia and at the Caspersen School of Graduate Studies at Drew University in Madison, N.J., began illustrating for Scientific American in 1993. His highly detailed and wonderfully composed paintings delighted both readers and authors, many of whom wondered over the years if the originals were for sale. His work has been exhibited in Bologna, Milan, New York City and Philadelphia.” Link

The Art of Tim Biskup

May 27th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Artist, Digital Art, Drawing, Illustrations

The Channeler - Copyright Tim Biskup

Tim says, ” Tim Biskup is a Southern California fine artist whose work has been shown worldwide, including galleries and museums in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Tokyo, Kyoto, Barcelona, Berlin and Melbourne. He’s collaborated with artists and designers around the globe and organized art auctions and exhibitions.

Tim’s career in animation led him through nearly every studio in Southern California where he honed his craft as a draftsman and technical painter.

Emerging from the studio system around the beginning of the millennium, he attacked the fine art world with a constant stream of original artwork, limited edition prints, vinyl figures, sculptures and tee shirts. In recent years his work has taken on a more serious tone, driving his self-proclaimed “baroque modernism” into darker territory.” Link
