Artist's description

Tree of life

I live in the middle east. I'm surrounded by the desert and a palm trees, but I love color and I want my country to be filled with it. I didn't want to change the true nature of things, I wanted them to evolve on their own.
Then comes the dot, every painting starts with a dot. So I decided to let the dots create their own path and world. The dots of color created the tree of life, and brought life to my desert.

Technique: A mix of illustration, mixed media, and vector art
Application: Adobe Illustrator

The artist

Fawaz Alolaiwat (alias fawazo)

Growing up, Fawaz was a big fan of legendary fictional characters like Spider Man and Grendizer. A basketball and football player and a fan of the arts (anime, comics, Sci-Fi movies, techno music and horror novels), Fawaz considers himself to be a creative mind with a passion for the expression of art in different forms. Majoring in Visual Communication at the Art Institute International, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, he gained extensive knowledge in many areas of design and communication. His work represents over 14 years of experience in electronic arts, branding, web and advertising design. His newest passions are photography, music, video and writing.
Born on September 4, 1977 in Bahrain, Fawaz grew up in a family of artists, giving him a true understanding of the world from many perspectives. He grew up in Bahrain, a place of culture, history, beautiful people, old textures, orange skies, the wide-open sea and the silent desert, a place that has given him much inspiration over the years.
It was at the age of 10, when he won his first award for an art piece called «Monsters Cafe» at a United Nations International Art Exhibition held in China, that he found his calling and direction in life as a graphic artist. By the age of 11, Fawaz was a certified Apple user and a year later became the first to teach Canvas. He still owns his first Mac LC. His upbringing gave him the motivation and encouragement he needed to keep pushing his mind to new creative limits: more color, texture and emotion.
