Welcome
friends to the digital domicile of Seth Fisher,
protector of mankind, friend to small animals, and perpetual artist
in training. Floweringnose is the translation of Seth's cerebral
network into a freely accessible electronic database. Just as bacon
and tomatoes unwittingly cooperate to become a delicious BLT, Seth's
art is the communion of a multitude of disparate ideas and interests
into tasty artistic morsels. Comic Books, Concept Design, Game Design
and Illustration are simply recipes for cosmic union with Seth's
subconscious. Seth's work is creative symbiosis. His technical arsenal
assembled thanks to the selfless teachings of painterly gurus from
many nations. His art, though attended to slavishly, is a cooperative
work; a library of ideas assembled from across the globe and then
reseeded back into the public conscious though his books and illustration.
Electronic media forms the fertilizing mulch of Seth's mind where
all art is a collaboration through the network
of collective global genius. Seth may be reached via email. |

With
Life as his constant guide, Seth roams with minimal inertia from
one adventure to the next. Seth lives in Nagoya, Japan with his
adorable wife and constant companion Hisako who encourages him
in mad quests for excellence and occasionally corrects his Japanese.
His interests range from spinning in circles looking for the inner
Buddha, to pondering humans' behavior then laughing hysterically,
to harvesting perfectly usable electronics found abandoned in
Tokyo alleys and attaching them to his computer. Seth's
most recent undertaking is a virtual reality Floweringnose
Adventure Game developed with the help of programming genius
Omar Wally. Other ongoing projects include finding a Grand Unification
Theory to combine religions, sciences, and arts into one subject
of study, learning to speak cat, becoming elected President in
2012, and learning to sew. In addition Seth enjoys mentoring emerging
artists and giving free English lessons to budding Japanese world
travelers. Seth's newest and most ambitious long term project
is guiding his first (yet unborn) child into adulthood. The young
man is scheduled to exit the Hotel Uterus and begin his career
as a human being on May 5, 2004.

The
Discipline |
Whether
it's making a sandwich, making a homepage or making love, every
project is a work of art. Once in 1988 while lying in bed peeling
a kiwi fruit with a sharp knife and watching Mel Brooks "History
of the World, Part I" Seth fumbled for the remote and stabbed
himself in the fleshy part of the arm just opposite the elbow
barely missing the central artery. Unable to locate a bandage,
Seth pressed pause then skillfully patched his wound with cotton
balls and masking tape, which he insisted on using for the next
five days while the damage healed. Seth's quick thinking that
day avoided the trauma of a doctor's stitches and insured that
he will always be able to remember that cool autumn evening when
he feels the lump of scar tissue in his arm. The canvas is Seth,
the paintbrush is life and the easel is everything else.

Seth's
first hardcover comic graphic novel Green Lantern: Willworld
was released in 2001 to great critical acclaim. Two years later
he was nominated for the prestigious comic industry Eisner Award
as Best Penciler/Inker for his work on Flash: Time Flies
and Vertigo Pop: Tokyo. His Japanese pop-thriller "Tokyo"
has been featured in the LA Weekly and was named one of the
10 best comics of 2003 by British culture magazine THE FACE.
Beyond comics, Seth's conceptual design work on the best selling
adventure Myst III helped lead the game to numerous awards
including Computer Game Magazine's: Adventure Game of the
Year and GameSpot's: Best Adventure Game of 2001. Seth acknowledges
that these recognitions are transitory individual opinions and hope
that you create your own. |
