    Hey crew - wondering if you may have references for designers that have branched out into more artistic roles or fine art I guess you could say (photography, sculpture, etc...)

    For example, GMUNK began as a digital artist doing graphic design and animation and is now focusing a great deal on photography and light-show sculpture.

    While Ash Thorp is heavily involved in the film industry as a concept artist, he is now getting into photo-realistic car renders and also painterly illustration work.

    As always, appreciate the time all!

    i've always sort of merged the two as i prefer to make art but publications are my favorite medium, so i work in the constructs of graphic design to make books/magazines that are solely explorations into personal expression.

    i think there's a pretty sizeable overlap these days, especially as "content making" becomes a career target in the us.

    • Thanks, Colin, great point - same here - always attempting to diversify my personal skillset - Guess I'm looking for specific case studies like Gmunk.antimotion
