Description

Across a snowy field, a woolly mammoth trudges out of the mists of times. Against the cold winter backdrop, the great animal appears as a shambling mountain of dark fur making its way past a forest of fir trees. This the latest in my paleoart series of artworks and depicts one of the Pleistocene's most popular beasts.

About how I create my artwork:

Rather than traditional forms of art such as painting or photography, I use a computer to create my images. It's called 3D Rendering and works like so: I make a scene by sculpting and arranging digital models in a virtual 3D space. After stipulating lighting and atmospheric effects, I have the computer create a simulated environment from which I take a virtual snap shot of the scene. Then, using image editing software and something more akin to traditional painting techniques (via a Wacom tablet), I go over the work adjusting colors, adding brushwork, painting in details, etc. to produce the final image. Software I use includes: Sculptris, ZBrush, Blender3d, Vue, Daz Studio, and GIMP.


Thanks for looking!
