Islamey impressions
Posted on: February 29, 2008Feeling lots inspired today.
Had great opportunities to create art. Didn't blow them away.
^ This is an impressionistic rendition of Islamey, Chouchou's floating concert stage. I've raved about them before, and while I like the silver and golden, very "Christmas regal" tones, I wanted to take things into a direction that mimicked the 70s, yet didn't go overboard on the rainbow spectrum angle, as James Whíte does so well.
Maybe someday, I should compile "Torley's big book of inspirations" showing all the art that came before me that touched me in some special way (ha-ha!) and led to my own developments…
so here again, we have something where I've taken disparate influences from across time and space. And like I said earlier today on Twitter:
I like movies where people have to break into a museum to free something vital to their objectives, be it time travel or rescuing the world.
IT'S LIKE COLLAPSING MULTIVERSE DIMENSIONS!
Well, I hope you like it.
