It’s official. London Ontario. The Arts Project Dec 2010
New works, paintings, silk screen prints. Putting the computer 3d graphic world on hold and back to the paintbrush, canvas combo. Full speed ahead. This image is the first of the promotional material- soon to be printed on postcards. Chris Wright is the Drunk Peacock. Specifics to follow.
I love the blog by the Forest City Fashionista, and how lucky am I to get spotted in my plaid outfit.
Here is my first city modeled and ray traced in Blender.
My painting has been suffering lately as I find myself working more and more with 3-d graphics. I’ve always preferred the finished canvas but there is something to be said for letting a ray tracer figure out how the optics of the glass and water should shine. & sitting back and watching it happen or going to sleep and waking to find the final picture rendered. There is a real feeling of satisfaction knowing that your computer is doing something productive while not supervised. “Here computer, work on these renders and I’m going to need those torrents downloaded by morning too.” No thanks.
So my new love is Blender. I had the best time with Sketchup, and she will still be there when I need her but in my look to expand the functionality I came across Blender and it’s great. A free, open source 3d modeling program with ray tracing, animation and a physics engine. I’ll try to post some splashes I’ve been animating.
Slowly getting more proficient at this great free program: Blender. This is a moldy coffee cup. I tried to make the image a bit grainy to look like a quickly snapped photograph.
Moldy Coffee
The city that killed Kerkythea and SUPodium. Blame my processors?
Started a sketchup city. Using hand drawn lines for the textures. Cross hatching and such. Not quite done but I have added to it a bit.
Slowly coming along.
I’m still not saying anything about this top-secret project. Modeling some land getting ready for (virtual) development. from a contour plan and some google earth for reference photos.
All the modeling has been done in Sketchup with the help of google earth a contour map and rendered with suPodium.
Here is a work in progress.
Cutting the umbilical cord of Christ
It has been a long process bringing it to this point with much more work to be done, click though to see the steps involved…
Thanks for the mail
Acrylic turned oil painting.
This could use a clever name. I paint em, someone else should name em.
Nice body, no arms, legs or head.
