so here is a sketch of an oryx and a deep sea diver running together. needs much refinement, but it’s a start. front? back? i think front… Here is a noteworthy critique from a friend, for starters:
“ when the diver is behind the oryx, it feels like they’re jumbled together, when the diver is in front of the oryx there’s a lot of dramatic tension… to me it says, quite well, that human beings, despite their technology, are still organic in nature, and have instincts, like running. humans can cover themselves in technology, but the core will always be instinctive. I think there are multiple relationships one can talk about between technology and nature, and the one this band wants to use is the seeming tension between them. Your drawing definitely sets up that tension, since the two creatures are competing.”
Hmmmm, i need more critiques like this, it’s the one thing i miss about being in art school, lots of feedback.
a better rendering of the diver
ok, here is an album version/idea of this image. the feet being the front and the heads being the back…
cool. i like the one that focuses on the heads more. and i like the dude chasing the oryx. i think.
