The visual arts, including digital art, have always fascinated Rory White. As a result, he is obsessed with art, design and digital graphics, and always wants to learn more.
He is mostly self-taught, however, he did study art in high school. Having received a bursary for tertiary education, White attained a certificate in Graphic and Advertising Design through Intec College.
White's influences include: the Surrealists; fantasy artists such as Frank Franzetta and H. R. Geiger; Neo-Manga artists such as Eva Soulu; as well as video game designers, illustrators and concept artists most notably, American Mcgee, Daryl Mandrake and Syd Mead.
In terms of White's personal style, he always attempts to "twist" his subject just enough to make it unexpected or surreal. White draws from his dreams and his work often takes on African wildlife and textural elements.
White aspires to work full-time within both the print and video game industry as illustrator, conceptual artist and creature designer. Ultimately, White aims to develop a career within the South African gaming and illustration industries.
