Das Paradies Und Die Peri



Finished !






This is supposed to become a CD cover for a truly great oratorium by Schumann.
I really wanted to include llittle scenes from the narrative somewhere on the pannels
but I think it would'a been too much. I found a rather good site for referencing Persian
motifs here: http://www.persianpaintings.com/.

Works in Progress.

12/05/06 Heres how the block-in for the "Paradies" looks. You can tell there's shiny stuff on top. Its matt medium. The linework is FW acrylic ink, BURNT UMBAH BABY.



And the EDEN picture. Same story. NOw you see what's on it. See? I tOld you.







12/02/06 ... Here are some "works in progress" so you can see how organized I am.
I try to keep them from stagnating, the way countries "on their way to development", for instance, do.
I was listening to Bobby Chiu's video podcast on UTUBE and drawing this blue babe and I ahd me a great time but I ran out of podcasts.


THis here you cant really see what's going on, but I assure you its thumbnails for a book interior illust. for EDEn, where they sort of fudge their landing and their ship is all sideways and theyre just hanging in their hybernation coccoons.



This one's for EDEN also, it's a little later in the story they run into a native .. "village" sort of I guess, and the aliens kinda stampede around them, and no one can tell whats going on. This one's almost there but I need to add more "guys" in the back and equalize the values a bit. Maybe add some random colors...



You know what I just thought would be F***King Lame beyond any measure? - DIgital Abstract Expressionism.

TOMUTSU WK. ... I DON'T KNOW.



No, I didnt invert the colors in photoshop. I'm just a whacky kind of guy. I did try to invert the hue back to human-ish fleshtones, in fact, as soon as I got the pic imported , to see what she would look like, of course. But that just made all my mistakes realy plain.


Hey look its the Umbrella corporation M ployees and theyre... standing around ! I'm sure you can tell I painted that chick in just for good measure and without reference other than the voice of Bill Sanchez in my head going, "now put the girl in the picture, but she's staaanding up."

Sunday 13... Grace cathedral

The exquisitely crafted looming body of the Bride Of Christ. Yaay. This time I was in the company of Grant Alexander http://grantalexander.blogspot.com/who was painting the ornate fountain in the garden in front, which is much more challenging. What can I say I'm a wuss.




Here's also the previous fruit. This is in the heart of the tenderloin. All sorts of bountiful acquaintance possibilities.
