Eloh_Projects_Northern_Menagerie_Header_03.20.2018.jpg


Northern Menagerie was originally commissioned by my good friend, Andrew Wasielewski. He gave me free reign and full control of the art with the solitary caveat that the image must translate to sublimated hoodies and t-shirts to be distributed by his company Wazshop at https://wazshop.co/. As I was born in the US and have been fascinated by Native North American traditions and legends since a young age, I was excited to be able to communicate this place within me. The image remains one of my favorites due to some major breakthroughs in my use of light and because of the 15 animals that it "boasts". I hope you enjoy.

Process Video

I captured the entire creative process behind Northern Menagerie and composed this speed lapse on the back end. The video is sped up over 100x and many segments of lesser significance have been edited out in order to time the video to the music. Suduaya gave me permission to use his "Shamanic Light" track and actually reached out to me to create his "Venus" Album Cover as a result. As always a majority of the work is done in Photoshop with some special effects painted in Corel Painter. In addition there are Groboto and Trapcode Tao renders incorporated. Enjoy:)

Wow. Such an amazing painting. There is so much going on there, and you balance it perfectly.

I kept being drawn back to the condor. I guess I was pulled to the designs on its face.

Thank you for showing the process.

That goes to show that you never know where you will land a commission.

The more I look at this the more I really appreciate it. The vibe produced by the opposing light and dark is further fueled for the color choice. The purple and copper that is in the top part adds a boldness that makes this a mighty spiritual force.

OMG Freakin amazing designs!!!!! Followed you on Youtube and am Re Steeming this now. Great work!!!!!

Thank you @thewayiseeit I appreciate your compliments and your follow:)

Wow..what a details..what software did you used @elohprojects ?

Thank you @journeyu I used Photoshop for a majority of it. But also Corel Painter and Groboto.

Nice, love all the light and love lol :)

Thanks for saying so Chris. Nice to hear from you.

Wow that's awesome! Love the dragonfly, they're sort of like "spirit animals" for me.

Thanks for saying so Adam. I appreciate the engagement mister:)

I should really cut down my list of people I'm following,I followed too many people at first and I often miss content I would prefer to see lol

Haha yes me too. Btw I will be hosting a Visionary Art Competition soon. I will be partnering with Slothicorn so there will be nice rewards. Keep an eye out. I’ll let you know too.

Thanks for saying so Dennis.

The lighting in this is magical I am in awe ❤️

:) I am happy you like it Julia. Thank you for saying so.

Re-wathing this video and seeing the details of the picture I definitely can now affirm that my favourite of all these animals is the little frog. Just checking us out from up there, I find it pretty awesome!

We are still in Thailand, the adventure is definitely turning interesting at the moment. Flying to India on the 6th of April. Keep on the hard work dear, sending you some Thai love.

Thanks Aglae. I hope you guys are having a nice time.

So amazing sean. You are a perfectionist through and through.
