It has been said that every artist wants to be famous, remembered, and have their art placed in a prestigious gallery. While it is certainly a great honour, I've personally found a great deal of satisfaction in being part of a movement of artists. During my time as a freelancer I've worked with a group of art curators in a project called The Rejected Palettes List, which takes palettes that were deemed "Too unorthodox" for practical use in pixel art.

As of the time of writing, I've created 15 unique works with the Rejected Palette List Project, and I've found the experience deeply rewarding as an artist who values creativity and a willingness to work outside of the box in the name of innovation. I have learned so much in working with this project and with these palettes, both in the field of art and in the real world. We so easily judge things because they do not at first appear to fit within the "acceptable" ranges we artificially set up. By rejecting those barriers, we free ourselves and achieve an at last unchained expression.
