Bio/Info:
Growing up in New York's West Village during the 60's - 90's "was
inspirational" hanging out in Washington Square Park playing Frisbee and
watching the people from around the world go by, his cast of characters
were born. His imagination wandered through time and space-boundless
through infinity. "Infinity is a place I often find comfort, serenity and
inspiration" he says. Ralph's 3D graphics, 2D illustrations, sci-fi,
fantasy and psychedelic art is filled with visions yet unseen, only
dreamed of.
Ralph brings his vision of infinity down to earth by incorporating
photo realism into his work. Photo realism is an obsession Ralph has had
for as long as he can remember. Working on producing the photo realistic
image was an addiction until he attended figure drawing sessions at the
NYC Soho School of Living Arts. In his early twenties he spent eight
months religiously attending these figure drawing sessions. He loved the
freedom there. "There were no teachers, no critique and no one looking
over your shoulder. I was free- free just to draw". The freedom
experienced in Soho resulted in over 500 pieces.
Today Ralph Hawke Manis explores the endless wonders of digital and 3D
creative arts as well as sharing his knowledge and vision through his
extensive Website. Infinitee Designs... Building Websites, CD
covers/jackets, book covers and movie and concert posters Ralph has reinvented
himself through digital computer graphics and visual 3D special effects.
Software of choice... Autodesk Maya & Photoshop.
