Its been a while in the making, but I have finally finished up on my latest digital art work, Deep Space Vista. This was definitely something new for me and I was happy to take on a new direction with my art. I’ve always had an interest in concept art especially from the Science Fiction and Fantasy genres for books, movies, and games, so trying my hand at a ’space scene’ of some sort was something I’d been wanting to do.

Spatial Entity is the result of some simple brush work in Photoshop mixed with some blending and blurring of a few luminescent colors. Add to that some stars in the background and it all just came together. Again, this was mostly an exercise of creative exploration and just putting into pixels what comes to mind.

I have been rather enjoying creating more digital art works in my free time as late. And Tropical View is essentially a follow up piece to View from the Sea although far more colorful and well, tropical. This composition is all about the perspective and sense of distance. A destination I would not mind visiting and one fun to not only imagine, but create as well. Maybe it’s a sign that I need a vacation, as a secluded beach with such a view kind of sounds good right about now.

View from the Sea was essentially my second effort in creating a digital art piece using a pen tablet. My intent was simply to capture a hazy view of the land while meshed with some low lying clouds from a distant seaside perspective. Simple air brush effects and soft gradients were brought together to realize this final composition.

Wanting to get back into Illustrator and have a little fun, I came up with this little bit of inspiration to share – simple and straight to the point, I think. And moving forward I’d like to spend some more time creating small works like this just for fun. After all, sometimes less is more.
