Wildlife Artwork

Recently, I got involved with a project for a prior student of mine to create several artworks of different wildlife for his restaurant. These works varied from fish to birds to cattle among others. the challenge was to create images that were colorful and creative yet representative of items he planned to serve on his menu. This challenge meant to portray the animals in such a way that it wouldn't cause patrons to "feel bad" looking at a real representation rather that they would be impressed with the renderings and informed of the options available. To achieve this I created a series of artworks which all are slightly abstracted using black line and represented in bold colors from a single palette as to have them all relate to one another. In addition, each work includes an additional actual object in the composition to stimulate interest and curiosity in the theme of the work.
