Illustration Friday topic: Hybird
Come one come all to see the "Wondrous Wanda ride and play her Hybrid UniBaseCycle"
It's interesting that in considering a hybrid topic I landed here. I often assign hybrid creature creation in my character design or photoshop classes, and it is always a favorite assignment. But I took a different route here.
The drawing is a hybrid of sorts, traditional first (ink, paint, pencil) then digital manipulation (photoshop)

what a great invention!! Why didn't I figure it earlier???
ReplyDeleteIn one word: great!!
Thank you so much! Not to worry, I didn't figure it out earlier either:)
DeleteHaha, oh my goodness, that would be tricky to master! Very cool vintage circus-y style! Well done!
ReplyDeleteCindy, thank you, and I agree I don't think I could master such a trick. That's why I draw them instead.
DeleteThat would be a difficult act to follow...in a hybrid sense...both the act of playing the instrument you're riding or riding the instrument that your'e playing...and not forgetting the act of doing a better drawing than this!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Rod, I agree tough act to follow, but I would love to see it!
DeleteHi Alicia, I like your work, it's admirable how you can draw an entire architecture perspective and something "weird" like this. you have a wide range expressive!!!
ReplyDeleteI like how you announce this one,
old-style circus shows.
Roberto, Thank you so much for your kind words, I just love to draw, there are times when I feel like I should settle myself to one particular style for continuity of work, but I can't help myself, so many beautiful ways to see and express the world around us.
DeleteHehe, what an amazing invention! Lovely style to your illustration - you've made black and white look vibrant
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! She was fun to draw and I truly appreciate your comments!
DeleteThis is very cool. I love the choice of black and white, and the details and textures are amazing.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I love the combo of traditional and digital textures, so many fun tools!
DeleteNow THAT is multi-tasking!!! I am fascinated with old circus & side show art, & I just love the vintage feel of this! The black & white suits it perfectly!! Very cool style!!!
