  • UNDO

    Because every now and then, something really needs an undo.

  • Fast Forward

    Photo of the fine art print called Fast Forward. It is a 150x80 cm large very colorful print, in which 50 fast forward buttons are placed in a grid of 5 tall and 10 wide. Wach button has 3 colors, all colors in the artwork are unique.

    One of my favorite prints, “Fast Forward” is added to the portfolio and is available for purchase. It’s a large 150x80cm fine art print of 50 vibrant color blocks with old style fast forward buttons. Each of the 150 colors is unique and is full of life and energy. This piece is such a joy to look at. Every time I come across it, my brain does a little jump for joy. That is essentially every night, as we’ve given it a place on a wall next to our bed.

    A zest for life

    The concept for “Fast Forward” emerged from a conversation with my wife during the beginning of the pandemic lockdown. There is one thing about her that I absolutely adore: her boundless resilience. She is my ultimate positron, a particle that refuses to go negative, which is a funny way of saying how much I love her. So “Fast Foward” to me is a celebration of a lust for life, and a testament to her vitality.

    Love for color

    The colors in the fine art print version of ‘Fast Forward’ turned out more vibrant and powerful than I had hoped for designing it. I hand-picked each of the 150 colors, looking for agitation. I love the energy of color, of it’s fotons, and how they resonate our retinas. When I look at the pigmented inks that saturated the woolly fibers of the watercolor paper, and how light reflects off both, well, that’s just magic to me.

  • The shop is live!

    Hi, just small but exciting update. I opened a Ko-Fi shop for my artprints. It just went live!

    Photo of artist Ingmar Spit's workshop. We see art hanging on the walls, a desk with a cimputer, a screen, prints laying on the tabletop. Behind the table we see an electric guitar and an open door.

    What is Ko-Fi?

    Ko-fi is a platform that allows fans to make small (or large) donations to creatives around the world. The idea is very simple. Anyone can make one-off or recurring donations to artists they like and want to support. It’s basically a digital tip jar, with messages, a blog and a shop attached to it.

    How do Ko-Fi donations work?

    The support or tip function is incredibly simple. On some of my pages you will see a “Support me” button. You can use it to “buy me a coffee” or, if you feel generous, increase the amount of your donation to whatever you want. The cool thing about Ko-Fi is that it has a 0% fee policy on coffee tips. So 100% of your money goes directly to the artist you support.

    The Ko-Fi shop

    In addition to the support page, Ko-Fi offers a very simple to use shop for artists. Here, you can buy both digital as well as physical items directly from your favorite creator.

    I’ve opened a store offering Fine Art Prints. You will find links to product pages on the Ko-Fi shop throughout my website. You can also visit the shop here.

    As always, thank you for supporting my art!

    Cheers, Ingmar
