From childhood Fred enjoyed all things fantasy. He was a very creative child and teenager, always drawing, always creating, and that continued into his adulthood. With a strong interest in fantasy and mythology it was inevitable that Fred would eventually start creating his own magical fantasy art. His early works were many fairy pictures in coloured pencil and chalk, many of which are still very popular. In 2007 he started working digitally. Over the first year he used digital watercolour for his creations, which was mainly fairy and goddess based. His art style in these early days was what is called modern pop-art, meaning bright colours, bold poses and a minimalistic feel. In 2008 he started art school and took classes in photorealism, as that was an area that was always of great interest to him. During this time he also moved from his signature style of modern pop-art to a more traditional fine art style, which you can be noticed in his early 2008 work.
