This
illustration is one of an ongoing series of images based on psychedelic
poster style illustrations and designs. Most of the pieces include
an eye as the central design element, and all works have their
inspiration in Mayan, Aztec and Egpytian heiroglyphic art. The
illustrations revolve around a loose language of design elements
including spirals, flames, bone-like structures, engine and machine
parts, and usually employ a symmetrical design.
This
illustration focuses a winged creature deisned to reflect a dreamlike
quality. Fluid and organic throughout, this illustration was intended
to have a soothing although odd effect on the viewer. This illustration
was originally drawn and inked on paper, then later scanned and
colored in Adobe Illustrator.
