School of Agni

Always had this idea of weird wizards and witches and so on doing the most abstract magic things ever. Finally found a way to articulate that with some experiments im working on. Blender has some amazing way to extract passes and distort image through filters. In this case im using a normal node to build the most random distortions that give it this interesting paint like look.

Playing with filters in Blender, making my own filter based on Glass shaders and Normals to create some really interesting distortions. Excited to play with this one more.

Submission for ‪Hellavision Television‬ Track Attack. Directed by Yonk.Online ( https://www.instagram.com/yonk.online... ) This initial idea was from Sudarsna Mukund (https://www.instagram.com/nyaj.pod/?h...) Who was individually exploring movement, dance and moss. For Hellavision we made a quick motion capture test and ran it through Houdini to create this creature. Utilizing a lot of vellum for the character, and particles and MOPs for landscape and moss. I created the track, learning some music and sampling along the way. Rendered in Karma Solaris.

Scans from my Current Sketchbook.

i've done a total cleanse of the most toxic social media. This includes Twitter and Discord. I still use Discord for friends and art servers, but had to eliminate anything where I was falling into a void. I started this a few weeks back and just recently deleted Twitter, seeing how that platform is just full of the worst content ever.

I was holding onto some hope that I could have curation and see only art that people post, but I swear that platform is made to make people angry and addicted. Since stopping that, and removing these apps from my phone, ive just had a lot of time to think. I read in the mornings, I've been applying to jobs now that im recovering from my burnout and taking walks outside now that its warmer.

This sketchbook im sharing started during a really bad time, when I had to leave a job after extreme burnout and terrible management. Never in my life have I experienced management that would burn an individual to the ground, and then blame them for problems caused by the company. These interactions broke me pretty hard, and it took a good nine months to recover. I recently have been finding the focus to draw and paint, and the focus to get myself to apply again. I picked the worst time ever to leave a job and take it easy, but if I didn't, I would have suffered even worse fate.

Something flipped in the past few months, and i'm enjoying painting again. Perhaps a combination of detox and career break, im finally finding love in the traditional crafts.

Process Blog

I did a total wipe of this whole blog, and will be using this to post my thoughts, ideas and process. Once I get my portfolio all updated, planning to synch this along with my Website.

Not even sure who's on here, but hello again!
