Description
Long ago a tree fell across a small rocky forest stream creating a natural bridge. Little remains of the tree but a mossy, fungus covered, hollow log. Yet still it spans the meandering creek. Ferns and moss covered rocks line the banks of the water, and, just behind bridge, ivy attacks another old twisted oak. Perhaps this tree too will one day bridge the stream.
I actually created this scene originally for my "Tiger on a Log" work ( http://daniel-eskridge.artistwebsites.com/featured/tiger-on-a-log-daniel-eskridge.html ). But, I thought that it also made for a pretty good landscape scene on its own.
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 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.

Love the play of light and shadows... the harmony of the gorgeous soft purples and rich sap green... the various textures... and the whole mood of this Fascinating Scene Daniel!!

Lovely setting with marvellous lighting. The old tree with the ivy is my favourite element! v
