Watchers

I made a couple of different versions of my recent cakes wallpaper and thought I'd stick them here as I haven't got much else to do with them:



as well as the slightly more frenetic:



The thing about these two is that they are fully tileable. So if you want to use them as a wallpaper, just set them to tile, rather than stretch or centre and they should seamlessly fill any sized desktop.

Personally I think they could make nice wrapping paper or laptop covers or something like that as well. If I had the time I would probably pursue that thought.

On an unrelated note I finally updated my website fairly recently, after almost 5 years of the old design. Unfortunately due to changing hosts and stats packages over the years, as well as some periods of outages, I've lost track of the exact numbers of visitors it has received. I can with some confidence say now that it has passed the 5 million mark (probably somewhere around 5.2 by now), which is nice.

Bio

Nik Ainley is a digital illustrator based in the UK. He has been producing personal and commissioned illustrations for a wide array of clients for over ten years.

Self-taught, he first found his love for digital art while studying physics at university. He quickly found his interest in producing graphics on computer outgrowing that of his studies. After completing his degree he moved full time into design and illustration and has been there every since.

Nik is constantly trying to expand his range of abilities and is happiest when learning new software or techniques. He works in both 2D and 3D software to produce his images and especially enjoys the results combining the two can achieve.

Shinybinary.com was first launched in 2004 and has since attracted over five million visitors.

He is represented in the UK by the Central Illustration Agency and sells high quality art prints with ClickforArt.

Nik is tired of writing about himself in the third person now and is going to stop.

Been in love with your work for a while but only just realised you studied at IC, how awesome! I just graduated with a bachelor's degree there and still wondering I should "break free" from the science world. It's difficult when you have asian parents. Not saying I'm anywhere near as good as you though, just considering something more creative.

Hi, I have a somewhat important message, so please reply. I am doing a study on digital art for an art theory class I am taking. I would love featuring your works under a Photo Manipulation exhibit. Is that okay with you?
