The Ratscape Archives: A Plug for My Creative Outlet

The name “Ratscape” originated as my online handle for a few message boards back in the days before Facebook, Twitter and Instagram existed.

As Ratscape, I began creating pop-culture themed artwork and shared it on various message boards, websites and social media platforms. Over the years, the art caught on and became popular within the different online communities. A few are commissioned pieces but most are personal works – my lighthearted takes on TV shows, movies and comic books – made as a fan and all in good fun.

This continues to be one of my creative outlets – a way for me to combine my graphic design and illustration skills and exercise my creative process while expressing my not-so-serious side and love for all things pop culture.

So, lucky you! I’ve rounded up all this art and placed it into one online gallery. If you are a fan of the popular arts and are looking to kill some time, maybe have a chuckle, I invite you to browse through the Ratscape Archives.

Here are a few examples of what you can expect to see.

If I was aboard the Battlestar Galactica, I'd work as a Mass Communication Specialist cranking out recruitment posters for the Colonial Fleet.

Farscape is a science fiction TV series that was so Rock and Roll for its time.

Because who watches The Office and isn't constantly reminded of The Godfather?

High School Graduates – If you excel at science or technology... and espionage is your thing, consider SHIELD Academy!

My homage to Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel, the voices behind Guardians of Galaxy's Rocket and Groot.
