Description
A white egret stands among some grassy dunes next a piece of driftwood on a sunny beach with crashing waves.
It was a rather cold day when I started this image. Tired of the winter weather, I decided to make some warm art. Thinking back to my last vacation to the coast, I remembered an egret that hung around stalking the dunes. So, I made him the star of my latest artwork.
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!
