H.R. Giger (R.I.P.)

By / / Illustrations / 2 comments

Hi!

I wanted to make a post in tribute to H.R. Giger. He passed away last week at the age of 74. He is best known for his scary (and genious) creations for the film Alien (1979).

This amazing swiss artist has given me a great deal of inspiration with his surreal pieces of art. I familiarized myself with his art already as a teenager and since have respected him as one of the greatest artists our time. Let this be my tribute to him.

R.I.P.

About Micke Nikander

Hi! I'm a graphic designer and underground artist from Finland. I like creating pictures from scratch as much as documenting the wonders of the world through a lens. No, actually I like drawing more.. :) -Micke
