Riaan Marais’ parents were instrumental in his development and interest in art. Their encouragement pushed him to try and perfect each drawing he made. From a young age, he was interested in drawing and painting things he observed and imagined. Art remains a very import part of his life and is still a major part of his existence.

Today Riaan produces art in various forms. He loves his pencils, and gets his hands dirty with clay while sculpting. Riaan also use digital media to produce illustrations for the industry, mostly
advertising and book illustrations. He also uses 3D software to create a range of art from Arc-viz to imagined monsters.

Riaan currently lives with his loving wife and two beautiful boys in Johannesburg, South Africa.
