I visited Cambodia last August. It was an amazing experience. It's a beautiful, fascinating country, I could go on and on about it but this blog is for art not pontification. Anyway, the main transportation is by "moto" which is a scooter or bike. Saw families of 5 or 6 people, including babies, all riding a scooter at the same time, without a helmet in sight. Wild! This piece is from a photo I took, and it's done punk-rock style like the cover of a Clash album.
Every year Megadeth runs a contest to design the Christmas card they send to their fan club. This is my submission. I think I followed the rules and made the deadline with time to spare, but I'm not sure if they received it or not....and I didn't request confirmation. The results have been posted, though, and I'm thinking my submission accidentally ended up in someone's junk mail folder. Either that or the card I made is too religious (knowing Megadeth I seriously doubt that's a factor), or vector art is more reviled than I thought? ;-)
Oh, and I'm not discrediting the winners, there's some cool stuff this year (and as always, art is subjective):
Megadeth Christmas Card '09 winners
Overall though I enjoyed coming up with the concept, and drawing it. I feel good about the color and composition and I enjoyed messing with a traditional theme. I hope you like it, too.
Maybe I'll save it to submit next year. For now, it's going on the blog.
