Merry Alec Fanart Appreciation Sunday!
This composition is from artist @mattlyon , I believe. I say I believe BECAUSE, in a failure of librarianship, I thought I had saved the link to that page, but did not. However, from looking at the artist's body of work, I am pretty confident this is his.
It, like most of his pieces, has a definite Peter Max vibe to it; the artist that created The Beatles iconic Yellow Submarine artwork. Lyon mentions working in the digital medium but this for all the world looks like a painted piece. Maybe the brushstrokes in the underpainting are a done digitally, but it looks damn hard!
I love how this is the essence of Gheorghe in that scene when he shows Yorkshire to Johnny and the pastoral vista unfolds before them like a brilliant quilt. Gheorghe's expression is everything in that scene because, ultimately, Johnny watches the horizon and you can see realization come up on his face, of the beauty he'd been bypassing, but Gheorghe? After this scene, he's watching Johnny, and for the same reason.
Hope you're having a great Sunday and hope to see you all here tomorrow!
