Drawing inspiration from artists such as Jean-michel Basquiat, Alphonse Mucha, and Jean-luc Godard, Swan channels a broad array of influences into his art. Although a classically trained ceramist, as well as a sculptor and a cinematographer, Swans path to voxel art was unorthodox. After leaving a position as an art director, Swan spent three years travelling around Asia, including spending time as a Buddhist monk, as well as a student to a ceramic Raku Master. Once returning from his time abroad, Swan returned to his artistic roots after randomly stumbling across voxel art online, and joined the CryptoCities team soon after.
