About Me:
Ed Unitsky is an international artist known for his complex and captivating surrealist art.
His artwork expands the mind creating an imaginary journey into the fantastic realms.

Ed’s art has been set on par with the likes of Roger Dean, H.R. Giger, Michael Whelan, Storm Thorgerson and many other prestigious master fantasy artists and is being touted as the modern day Dali.

Ed’s creative range is remarkable. His unique signature style resonates an old world influence with an innovative Pop Culture flare. Many seem to believe it is inspired from the Divine.

Ed’s creative abilities began when he was small child. After years, of painting, sketching, doing large scale mural work, airbrushing, and many other mediums, in 2002, Ed sat down at a computer to apply his artistic capacity. Instantly, he fell in love with this new digital forum to create his ideas. Digital artistry has become a medium which has expanded his artistic range enormously.

Ed is an artistic master of digital painting, collage creation and photo manipulation. His creations continue to amaze and inspire all those who become familiar with his artistry.

In 2002, Ed sent some of his artistic creation to Roine Stolt of the Flower Kings. Roine decided to use Ed’s images on the Flower Kings Fan Club CD 2002. Subsequently, Ed’s career began to flourish.

Roine was soon to get involved in the formation of a new progressive rock band, The Tangent created by Andy Tillison of Parallel Or 90 Degrees. Ed was an easy choice for this new bands artwork packaging.

Ed’s very first full length commercially released Album Artwork on the InisdeOut, received received Best Artwork in 2003 in the Dutch Progressive Rock Polls - DPRP.

In March 2007, The 10th Annual Dutch Progressive Rock Poll Awards for 2006 – Ed's spectacular artwork for The Tangent's – "A Place In The Queue", won by a two to one vote! Ed previously topped his own previous poll award in 2003 with his artwork for "The Music That Died Alone" and in 2004, Ed shared second place for his cover artwork for The Tangent's - "The World That We Drive Through" in the 2004 Dutch Progressive Rock Poll Awards with Carl Glover's artwork for the Marillion. In 2008 Ed won the DPRP Award for the 2007 Best Artwork of the Year for his artwork for The Flower King's Album - Sum of No Evil.

Artwork for The Tangent, "A Place in the Queue" and Oresund Space Collective's, "All About Delay" were both nominated for their outstanding artwork covers in the 2006 Italian Prog Awards. And in 2008, Ed was inducted into the Italian Prog Hall of Fame for his artwork for The Flower Kings Sum of No Evil.

Ed has created over 3,500 artwork pieces in these few short years and continues to create incredible artwork for CD Album Covers while expanding his artistic energies to his personal artwork pursuits...
