Ghastly Vapor Flourish

Again tooling around w/ Trapcode for someone on the print team. Might make it into a comp for Ghost of Versaillles.

Circles 02

Here is a new version of the circles, it’s pretty much a matrix of the previous version. In the future I plan on exploring custom stroke patterns and a way to represent the breakdown of the soft outer shell of the walnut that leaves the hard dark brown center exposed.

zen critters in ink

Behold the sick sick sick skills of Zach Johnsen. I came across Zach’s work a while ago on Drawn. He inspired me.

I grew up in a small town. And in that small town my Grandpa owned some land on a creek. I spent many hours in the creek as a boy. Because of this I feel a special bond to most creek critters.

This concept would be a series of ink & watercolor pieces highlighting some of my favorite creek critters (some are not so much IN the creek but from around the wilderness of rural Missouri);

Box turtle
Crawdad
Minnows
Tadpole / Bullfrog
Spiders
Snapping Turtle
Catfish, baby catfish
Sunfish
Rabbit
Deer

Stylistically, I’m still not sure how I’d tackle this one, but ink & watercolor seems a good start. I recently put together some pieces similar in process in the preparation of my unborn daughter’s room.

Does this sound like a good project?
