Some of my photos are available as cards, prints and t-shirts right now at redbubble I can easily add other artworks to redbubble if anyone wishes to see how a particular photo might look there just ask and I'll arrange to upload it :)

Alternatively, reproductions of my digital artworks either on fine art papers, poster paper or canvas (giclee process) are available if you contact me. Access is via my website email address.

I have been teaching myself for some years now how to use Adobe illustrator and Photoshop to create my art.

Zebra Coral

I began initially by drawing with coloured pencil on paper.

I moved onto teaching myself how to use Microsoft Publisher to draw some characters for a children’s book I was writing (as yet unpublished).

It took me a lot of time and energy to work out how to draw those characters.

Space Characters

Read the book here.. gbcolton.com.au/RoryFrontCover.html

They were the end result of many many hours/days/years spent playing around with the basic shapes and other drawing options that MS Publisher offered.

Such things have ways of gathering their own momentum.
All that you now see in my flickr are the result of that initial desire to write that story.
I'm more than happy with how things have turned out since that time.

I have recently moved onto creating my artwork much larger, generally 1400mm x 800mm.
I have been very happy with what I have been able to create since then.

Because my art is now all digitally drawn it is easily able to be printed onto canvas by the giclee process...

I hope people like what I do.

    "I am here to set the record straight! I am here to testify to the fact that Graham Colton is not the "one smart artist" that he proclaims to be!
    In fact - there is mounting evidence that blatently indicates that Graham Colton is actually "one smart, creative, unique, intelligent and concerned artist". Yes ~ it is true! - and Mr.Colton must come to terms with these truths and immediately change his flickr name accordingly.
    However ~ that would be a rather long name to have under his icon and it would probably shove everybody elses' icon off of the screen and into oblivion ~ so, never mind!
    Graham you are a talented artist and a special person!"

    "onesmartartist (Graham Colton) is just that - One very smart artist! :)
    His artwork is so unique, and comes from some place way outside any conscious level that I could conjure up. Colours and abstractions vary greatly from piece to piece, and always evoke emotion and create spaces for contemplation.
    Make sure you look at some of his earlier work, as well as the new pieces, to see an accurate crossection of the diversity of his talent."
