SIMON ATKINSON CREATIVE ARTS

The Foundations Of My Education have been in art and architecture, and I have always had a passion for design, whatever the medium. My interest in CG arts, initially inspired and encouraged by family members, and modified by a delight in science fiction and fantasy, led to a focus on computer animation. Being a perfectionist, when I have visualized a scene and attempted to actualize it on the computer, I may wake up in the middle of the night with new ideas and solutions and go back to the computer to incorporate them. Creating fantasy worlds and scenarios has been a therapeutic form of escapism as well as a source of deep satisfaction.

I have had the privilege of being an official Beta tester for several 3-D animation software companies. This has involved testing newly developed software ,documenting problems and giving my suggestions for improvement.

My work may be described as traditional painting by hand, computer animation and high end graphics 2-D and 3-D.I am a versatile artist, highly skilled in a variety of areas including business product designs, architectural and environmental conceptual visuals, science fiction, fantasy, scenic, and old world environmental visuals.
