Hi, we are recent artists / illustrators / designers who have just stepped out into the art industry. We all have big dreams and big ambitions, and yet we have to take small steps at a time.

The founder of this group, Steven Raaymakers, is a design graduate that have a passion in concept art. Through years of hard work and self-taught in speed paintings and concept art, he rises to be an art director of the Dynimix Studio at the age of 22. He is now working on a project with them which will be announced soon.

The co-founder of this group, Jun Hun Yap, had the educational background of Illustrations and Graphic Design. During his studies he had also taken a passion for fine arts, and had worked in all kinds of media. Although he is yet a master of none, being a jack of all trades provided him the knowledge and insights for different work and media.

Art-Rising, is a not just a group. We wanted to form a community, where artists of any kind can interact and support each other. "Quid Pro Quo, Do Ut Des", meaning "I give so you shall give" is our motto.

We wanted to share our knowledge and have constant interactions, discussions and communication within this group. So feel free to post any questions or interesting topics related to the industry.

What differs our group with others is the support we wanted to show. Every member of this group is a contributor, we want to show that your work is indeed important, it doesn't matter if you are a beginner or someone with great skills that needed a second eye. We give you a system to show your work in progress, so that we can support each other in the process.

We want to be as supportive and open minded as possible, to discover and explore various fields. We will do our best to accept any kind of work, as long as it is a work of passion.
