For the last 6 years or so, a friend of mine from uni has organised ‘Art by Design’, an annual exhibition in Kinokuniya Sydney’s Wedge Gallery. This year I thought it would be fun to enter something in as a good motivation to take a break and produce something outside of commercial work.
I entered an illustration – a bit of fun, looking at the excitement of the early era of flight. It was produced with 3D renders mixed with a bit of digital painting over the top, and was actually more of a challenge than I thought, having to get back into doing the entire process (character modelling/posing) rather than just the lighting/shading as I’ve been doing mostly exclusively for the last few years.
The show is on until Nov 13 at Kinokuniya in The Galeries, 500 George St, Sydney.
very nice colors and composition. love the red/turquoise contrast. (why do i want a spoon full of sugar now..?)
Love the clouds… I think I know how you did them:) I really like it when art is whimsical. I used to do darker stuff and I thought it made me somehow deeper. Then I realized the world has enough darkness in it already. anyway.. love it!
