Harvest Moon


(Harvest Moon)

I was asked to participate in a farm-themed exhibition here in Florida. A portion of the show's proceeds will go towards purchasing animals for impoverished families so they can sustain their lives.

Initially I felt like the theme wouldn't fit in with my style and that I'd have to curtsy out of this one. First I found a small antique wooden horse and worked with that on my very first digital/photographic illustration. But soon the thought of a nice red tractor wouldn't leave my mind. I captured the tractor both in TTV method and traditional then converted the traditional to a digital illustration (above).
