M.J. Lindow
M.J. Lindow is a generative artist from the western United States. Living in close proximity to the Rocky Mountains and the deserts of southern Utah, Lindow developed a lifelong love for the outdoors and rugged inhospitable places.
He often incorporates the natural world and the landscapes he loves into his art. Fascinated by using computers, his work shows the hand behind the machine by adding artificial imperfections and ‘hand-drawn’ textures.
'Waiting in Afton', 'Ephemora', and 'Desert Sun Rising' are a few of his notable works.
His latest series is called 'Impasto' minted on Dec 13th, 2022 from Grailers DAO.
Waiting in Afton
Building code representing natural landscapes, Waiting in Afton is a collection of 50 pieces minted on fx(hash) from November 16, 2021.
The series represents one piece for each day since Lindow quit his job as a data engineer to work on art full-time. He was inspired by looking out his back window each day and watching the seasons change at all times of day.
Reflecting on fleeting things, Ephemera is a collection of 111 pieces minted on fx(hash) on October 16,2022.
The series can be summed as a study of light, wildflowers, and wind. Borrowing from his previous works, the colors reflect the natural tones of the day and the artistic ink work of flora and fauna.
As the sun rises, the world comes alive with color, converting sand and stone into a sanctuary. Desert Sun Rising is a collection of 70 pieces minted on fx(hash) from May 9th, 2022.
Features include breath-taking natural palettes, bright stars and vegetation density. The series pays tribute to the southern deserts of Utah, where Lindow feels drawn.

impasto
Capturing the thick brush strokes of the impressionist artists, wild and flowing bouquets of generative flowers come to life. Impasto is a collection of 270 pieces minted December 2022.
To insure certain traits, 15 pieces were pre-selected by Lindow and GrailersDAO to showcase the varieties and possibilities of the algorithm in the collection. This level of curation seeks to recognize the artist's vision as well as the community involvement of Grailers.
