Illustration Friday-Scale


Click image for a larger view. This is my entry for IF's "scale" topic. This is the Garibaldi. I think it's the official fish of California. It's a vibrant yellowy gold color. They get up to 30 cm. in length. I've seen them while snorkeling out at the Channel Islands. They are so bright, I've sometimes seen them from great heights while looking over cliffs.

Learn more about the Garibaldi here.

Created the illustration today, Friday for this challenge. It pretty much took the entire day. Tedious line work in Freehand, painting a couple of textures, and combining in Photoshop.

***** Also, I completely redesigned my web site, to be very illustration focused. Every page has a new illustration created for that page. Please check it out and let me know what you think! Likes, dislikes and especially anything that doesn't seem to work right. Go to scottcuzzo.com...

Also see pics from the Open Gallery opening. I took pics of some of the art on the walls. Maybe you'll see your piece.

Thanks for your votes and your kind comments on being chosen!!!

Illustration Friday-Hats


Click image for a larger view. This is my entry...created specifically for the challenge. These portobello mushrooms look like big hats! And sage is perfect with mushrooms. I want to add more food illustration to my portfolio.

I drew the lines, painstakingly in Freehand, painted textures, and combined in Photoshop.
