I do believe it was for researching my graduate project though back in 2009.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been debating on whether or not to write about him because his work has evolved since I first started following him. His latest works have become more surreal\/cubist\/structured in nature, while I prefer his older whimsical pieces. His website seems to have also changed and he doesn&#8217;t have a lot of work featured. Luckily I have some saved work on my computer and there\u2019s always Google :P.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>I think I love his work because of the way he fills a canvas with shapes and characters, as well as the obvious elements like the character designs and colours which are lovely to look at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.timbiskup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">site<\/a> or his shop <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flopdoodle.com\/Merchant2\/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&amp;Store_Code=FS&amp;Category_Code=P\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Flopdoodle<\/a>.
