I've been asked to come up with the goods this month by way of a topic, so not to disappoint, I give you the discourse: 'Totem Animal'<br /><br />Here's the Brief...<br /><br />Based on your herritage and background, create a concept illustration that depicts a great beast that best displays your connection to this background.... The guidelines are: <br /><br />1) The piece has an apparent duality; depicting 'Man + Beast.' The beast can be real or mythological, or something real that is pushed stylistically towards a fantasy feel. The man/person ideally needs to be clearly connected to the beast through visual cues and a consistent visual theme.<br /><br />2) The environment can be supportive of the Beast and the Man alike and be indicative of the place of your background (or your ancestry)<br /><br />Other than this guys.... have fun! I'm looking forward to seeing the beasts you all unleash in the next 4 weeks!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5517444895818665075-7057275828797861867?l=monolithart.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Monolithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17120822235013738991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517444895818665075.post-46755766606302500552010-06-03T05:41:00.001-07:002010-06-03T05:43:37.498-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vvy-MDMQhC4/TAejLSWoQdI/AAAAAAAAACw/fNNXXD0do_o/s1600/Markyzan_RockLug%26Jetpack.jpg"><img style="display:block;
