About Digital Blasphemy

Ryan Bliss discovered his visual art talent when he received his first computer in 1995. Previously he had always wanted to be a writer and hadn’t studied visual arts in school. He has degrees in English and Computer Science from the University of Iowa. The 3D tools which were just becoming available to the public in the mid-90s opened a whole new world of creative expression for Ryan. His chosen medium has always been "desktop wallpaper". His work is designed from the ground-up to both draw the eye from across the room and stand up to close inspection. He started his web gallery, "Digital Blasphemy", in 1997 and it has been his full-time job since 1999. He currently has over 1000 images available on his site available for Members as well as a collection of free wallpapers for visitors. Ryan currently lives in Illinois with his wife Jessica and two sons Ian and Jason.

Amazing Artist! Amazing artist. Literally the best desktop art I’ve ever seen. I especially love that he renders for so many screen sizes, everything is available to members and it’s worth every penny. It’s super important to support the arts and excellent artists.

Beautiful digital artwork I've been a fan of DB since 2003 and a member for over a decade. The artwork is beautiful and with a membership you can download a resolution for practically any screen. Ryan has a great imagination and a lot of his art is a beautiful fusion of the natural world with otherworldly elements that make me feel like I've gone to another planet. I have DB on all my computers, plus my phone, and friends always comment on how cool the backgrounds are. There is some free art available, but I'd recommend the membership because it allows you access to the whole archive. My only criticism is that the website is outdated and a bit difficult to navigate, but it's easy to find the latest artwork.

Excellent digital artworks I have been a member for 15 years or so and known about the artwork for much longer. As an independent artist, Ryan Bliss has created images, that immediately identifies as "Digital Blasphemy" even before you notice the signature logo. As a platform for his images, the website is a no-nonsense portal, that contains only what you need, and doesn't oversell anything. I have nothing but praise for Digital Blasphemy, and no other artwork has been on my desktop backgrounds since registering.

Amazing artwork by an extremely talented artist Amazing artwork by an extremely talented artist. I have been a huge fan of his work for what must be pushing 20 years. Ryan's communication on the website, email, and social channels really make you feel part of his community. Having also purchased his artwork - most recently as face masks (4 for my family) he has a fantastic way of getting his artwork out there. Keep up the excellent work, look forward to enjoying your artwork for many more years.

Signed up as a lifetime member some… Signed up as a lifetime member some 12ish years ago. While my personal tastes have changed over that time, I still check back occasionally to see what's new. And Ryan is personally active on social media which I think is very cool of him, and also shows an interesting perspective that would otherwise go unnoticed.
