Midwest Artist Highlight- Richard Roberts

Currently based in Milwaukee, illustrator Richard Roberts may not have been on the scene for long, but his work has been creating some buzz in the art and Photoshop blogs.  With a mix of natural, fantastic and more abstract themes, his works are incredibly detailed.  Still in High School, he is proof that the future of the digital graphic arts is in the hands of the youth.  His work can be followed on his online portfolio and DA.  He also keeps a blog.
