LOST KINGDOM

Been busy on several fronts this month. Updating you on images I have been posting up on my twitter feed. (@RafaelKayanan) So if you've been following me on there you've seen these test designs for all over tee shirts popping up lately. I'll delve more into 'Lost Kingdom Apparel' and a little bit about the thinking behind each shirt when we get things up and running. I'm excited to see my work presented in a format without any creative restrictions. It doesn't aspire to be like any other line of clothing, other than a brand new way of expression for myself.

RAMPANT FOUR

There's many ways to interpret a line drawing with color in CS5. So I've put this image thru many different test runs.
In this version I was experimenting with dropping out the white color entirely, then using the remaining art as a color selection.
By creating several layers of various colors I would erase portions of one layer to reveal the colors beneath with a custom brush.
The image starts to unfold and becomes a way to organically rediscover a fresh version.
