Sea Serpent

I've fallen in love with painting various marine time objects, delving into working with bright colors of modern fishing boats against the misty greys of the sea and old, horrifying mythical creatures. For these three keyframe illustrations, I created the first as an establishing shot, highlighting the vibrancy of a modern, small fishing boat in the midst of a stormy sea, giving the whole frame an edge with the Dutch angle, as the scales of the sea serpent lay barely visible underneath the waters surface. The second keyframe highlights the sea serpent in all of its monstrous glory, horrifying the lone fisherman in his yellow coveralls in this lonely storm. Finally, the third keyframe signifies the destruction that the sea serpent has brought onto this lone, colorful boat.

For these pieces, I used Blender to help model out the perspective of the boat and serpent for the different keyframes. I then used those modeled perspectives and painted over the scenes in Photoshop, creating a final 2D painting.
