Jarrod Bezzina is an artist based in Australia who specializes in illustration, concept art, and comic art through digital artistry. Digital art is an artistic work or practice that uses digital technology as part of the creative or presentation process. While the artist develops a graphical design with the use of a computer, tablet, or stiletto, the process itself is similar to painting with traditional materials.
Jarrod follows the trend of redesigning old popular characters. He aims to represent himself as a creative and show the world the way he sees things. Artists consciously use their minds in everyday life to search out visual cues that create an emotional response within them. Through his art, the reality of the world is transformed into something completely different.
In recent years, comics and graphic novels have seen immense growth which means this category is trending for experimentation for many artists. Several aspects go into creating a graphic novel such as the artwork, the plot, and the focus on each character and their journey. Jarrod has started his graphic novel series and is most proud of the fact that he can create what he imagines on a page.
His greatest inspirations are his friends and colleagues who constantly inspire him to be the best he can, while also helping to push his skills to new heights. This creates the ambition and drives for him to work hard. The support derived from others always feels encouraging. Jarrod says “No matter how bad you think your art is, keep trying…trust me it’s worth it and we’ve all walked down that road of self-doubt. Some of us are still walking it.”
