detail

This is another panoramic that depicts a “battle” of sorts. coagulated masses of human refuse are moving out from their birthplace in the North Pacific Gyre, destroying everything in their path on the way towards human civilization on land. The coral reefs (and we humans by proxy even though we probably don’t deserve it) however have defenders - the bunnyfish! A school of bunnyfish is defending this reef with their teeth and tails. Can bunnyfish somehow eat and digest all this plastic and garbage?

First Kiss is number one

Ninja May 29th, 2008

I recently received an email from a lovely lady from Canada. She mentioned that she found us through a Google image search for the word, “kiss.” That got me wondering, so I too did a search and discovered that our image for First Kiss is number one and the First Kiss process sketch is number two on the Google image search. Wow… we even beat out the band, Kiss.

“Daydream Believer”—our next print…

Ninja April 30th, 2007

Since Spring is definitely in the air + the flowers are blooming, Penguin + I have decided to put out another print. =) We’ve been receiving a lot of positive feedback, + we’d like to thank you for your enthusiasm!

I still need to do some tweeks before we get it printed, but here is the (Cliff Notes) process for your viewing pleasure.

Daydream Believer

tree-sketch.png

I started out with a sketch of a tree + scanned it in.

Using the pen tool, I made a silhouette of the tree.

I then added in some squiggly lines (still using the pen tool with squiggly lines on the overlapping layer).

And it’s essentially more of the same (drawing more objects on separate layers, using the pen tool). I thought the squiggly lines on the tree were a lil’ too high contrast, so I changed them to a dull grey. I also reflected the tree horizontally. I then added in the swinging girl, butterflies, and grass (in that order). I didn’t have any pencil sketches for any of the other parts of the illustration; I drew them freehand in Illustrator.
Enjoy! And I’ll keep you posted when we finally get this printed! =)
