Rocket at Sea


So this week has been hard for me, for those who know
(and thats very little of my social media contacts)
would definately understand. but I digress, I never
really understood my dads like of some black and white
movies, maybe it was because he was brought up with
black and white TV’s and so on, and thats
understandable. But I distinctively remember a moment
where I said to him that I didn’t like black and white
movies because there seemed to be less emotional,
turns out that over time I would come to respect black and
white photographers and even trying out black and
white film. Black and white is alot more emotive then
people realize, conveying composition with light and
darkness over color is a hard task, its hard to see in
black and white so yeah… Anyways, I thought I may
throw some black and white in my digital art. for those
who haven’t seen my film account, please do check it
out! trust me, you wont be disappointed, I hope

Check the rest of the Little Islands Collection:

Thanks!
Also fun fact: the clouds were made with metaballs! Their super handy for making cartoonish clouds and steam :blush:

So I guess the Astronaut did manage to escape the planet with the criminal mastermind Sheep. Good on him, let’s hope his journey back to wherever he needs to be is safe and uneventful. :slightly_smiling_face:

…okay, this may just be my imagination, but this is definitely one of your more melancholy renders. Dunno if it’s the black and white, if it’s me concluding the made-up story of your Little Islands renders, but…yeah. This one feels sad, in a tastefully done and matter-of-fact way. (If I were to recommend something to go along with this, it’d be “Rocket” from the Smashing Pumpkins album Siamese Dream.)

Hehe.

But yeah, in terms of that melancholy feel, it’s a reflection of just how I feel. Something recently happened in my life that has just brought sadness and I couldn’t justify any reason as to why I should disconnect myself from my art when in some way shape or form I put my emotion within my works.

It’s things like my ‘heart in a jar’ artworks or my painters journey artworks that heavily reflect my emotions
