Visual Art – San Jose

A constant question I have heard is, why Grimbro? The answer changes but at its core it is the fact that Grimbro is the voice that is inside me. My given name is Jude Beers. Not a bad name at all. But Jude is a husband and a dad. Grimbro does not put me in that box. Grimbro can create Horror and Pop art. Grimbro sounds like a metal or punk band. Grimbro is a graffiti tag. It also makes me easy to find on the internet. A traditionally trained artist who embraced the digital medium. I have worked in the video games industry for almost 2 decades. I decided 10 years ago to start exploring my own artistic voice and decided to try using digital paint programs to do that. I have worked very hard to make sure that I created brushes that would give my work a texture and a \"painterly\" work. If the digital paint stroke did not look like an analog paint brush it was discarded. I like to work in vibrant colors that draw the eye and brush texture that draws you in. I have been encouraged many times to use a restrictive color pallette, but what\'s the fun in that?
