This is an image I really loved drawing and feeling. I've been studying and honing my ceramic skills for the past two years. I am obsessed with "Copetones" a small bird that reminds me of home and my dad. I've done some teapots, slabs, jugs, and glyphs. I wanted to give these ancient-looking pieces a universe, so I let my hand do what it wanted to do, and lean a bit more into flatter colors, and lineart, rather than more rendered images.
After all the digital part of being a concept artist, a bit of physicality is needed.
Enjoy!
