Dain Fagerholm

What are the results of a creative artist and an art form that creates a three-dimensional illusion? Not only does Dain Fagerholm draw with his own style of drawing, but he intertwines it with stereographic animated GIFs. In a previous blog I talked about animated GIFs and his uses of his masterpieces. These animations require at least two or more frames, or photos to cycle through.

Dain's style of drawing are sort of weird but awesome at the same time. His supplies contain pens/pencils, his creative creatures, and paper. His artwork includes these monsters that look like they hide under your bed or in your closet. The only difference is, he puts a smile on their face. Don't get me wrong their his preferred choices and I respect that. But these monsters aren't the only things he uses. Recently he drew a different girl that transitions through a cycle of colors that look like some retro hallucination.

Dain's career as an artist has became a artistic wonder across the nation. Among everyone who I met that has recognized his work, some supply negative criticism. They say they aren't attracted to his art because of his "weird" creations and simple drawings. I see where they're coming from when they say it's too simple. Dain's monsters or girls aren't involved in any activity or action. The only thing that keeps his viewers intrigued is how he uses the animation with his art to make it stand out.
