I’ve always drawn. Some of my first memories are of drawing. I’ve been heavily influenced by 2000AD, and D&D art, from the 80s and 90s. Bisley, Parkingson, Elmore, Easley as well as Frazetta, Boris, Bell and so many more. I love to paint and sculpt all the crazy demons in my head as well as those from film, games, books and comics. I’m happy to work in any medium, they all have their own challenges and idiosyncrasies. I mostly work in digital at the moment, mostly because it’s quicker and doesn’t take up too much space. I know I probably do have a style but I’m constantly trying new things and pushing myself to learn more.

Slawomir’s art comes from a crippling obsession with 80’s fantasy illustration, Metal and the big four of AD&D 2nd edition era art, Larry Elmore, Clyde Caldwell, Keith Parkinson and Jeff Easley. It is an amalgamation of these things made form. He’s also weirded out by typing about himself in the third person.
