I'm actually really proud of this one, especially for the feather. I had made almost every individual line using the Flat Brush in FireAlpaca (10/10 would recommend) but it was fun putting all my effort into one piece.
This piece was commissioned by a coworker. It was a very large piece at 24"by26" on green leather. I used an acrylic base and then completely covered that with oils. It becomes very dusty when dried so I added many layers of a spray varnish for oils on top. The color remained nice and vibrant.
Questa opera mostra un gorilla stilizzato con un tocco di street art e pop art, influenzata da artisti come Jean-Michel Basquiat, soprattutto con l'uso della corona. L'opera combina testo e simboli in modo vibrante e interessante.
Il livello tecnico è buono, con una composizione ben curata e forti riferimenti culturali. Ditemi che ne pensate :)
A spooky mixture of A bearded vulture and a vampire bat. I named him Merlot, he is what I call a false pheonix. Merlot can survive forever as long as he consumes blood, but he needs a lot.
