“The Workers,” Daniel D. Brown, 2016, Digital

“The Workers” is my latest piece in a series of digital artworks I’ve been creating with the intent of implying fantastical stories with individual beings or groups of beings. It is up to the viewer to create or decipher the story (and so far, I’ve found viewer’s interpretations even more interesting than my own). Also in this series: “The Refugee” and “The Guardian.”

I actually created two versions of this piece, and I waver in which I like best. But I believe this one is more conducive to story-telling:

And here’s the original version (without the HUD or CRT screen effects).

“Ember,” Daniel D. Brown, 2016, Pastel Pencil

“Ember”
14″ x 11″ Pastel Pencil on PastelMat

This is a drawing of the mythical Phoenix, engulfed in flames after resurrection. It is based on an actual photograph I took at the San Diego Zoo. Yes, believe it or not, they have a Phoenix there, although it is of the white ecotype, is not flaming, and is erroneously labeled as a “Secretary Bird”. You can buy prints of this piece HERE.

Original is SOLD
