Soulscape Series | Derek Elvy

I have had it in my head for a long time that I wanted to do Soulscapes.  Images that combined my nurses intuition, empathy, and vision with my artistic vision...however until I did the Weta Traineeship I really didn't have the skills to produce my vision.....but I got better :).  So I asked my friend Derek if he would be my guinea pig for the first full scale soulscape and being the Avant Gard Guru that he is he thought it would be fun so he let me. This is the result...he described it as very Dante and he loved it which made me so happy.  A bit darker and wilder than normal but also incredibly hopeful as well as I see it.

  1. this guy has obviously made it in the industry and while most artists tend to ride the latest fads and are trying to perfect the latest "in look" or a particular style, i think Elvy has always stood alone, he has never conformed or played by the book and his artistic integrity has been his tool of expression. There is a lot going on in this mans head and what a wonderful way to make a statement... through hair ;)
