My name is T. Klumpp and I am a traditional and digital artist working in multiple mediums. I also represent much of my digital and objkt.com NFT work online under the name Sol Encryptus.
I am from Houston, Texas and I began being working artistically in grade school. I went on to study classical techniques at university. I then became employed professionally in marketing design which continues as my current career.
I see my work as a fusion between the linear aesthetics of graphic design and the organic expression of fine art. As such, I have a varied source of influences, but my top names have always been Max Beckmann, Emil Nolde, and Georges Rouault. I also frequently draw on my passion for history, anthropology, cultures, languages, comparative religion studies and all aspects of the human condition which can both divide and bring us together under the banner of our shared experience.
