Mythischer König hält Löwenjunges in antiker Szene

Create a contemporary painterly version of a 4000 year old scene carved in rock, depicting the elaborate mythology of the Mesopotamian culture, an array of Gods and Demigods that ruled heaven, the earth and the dim nether world, yet shared the passions and frailties of ordinary men. Amongst them is the historical Gilgamesh, a half mortal King of Erech portrayed holding a lion cub as a symbol of his power. Traditional gouache and oil-paint sensibility translated into digital art, visible gestural brushwork, textured opaque brushes, dry-brush strokes, loose sketch lines, layered paint, translucent washes, broken edges, painterly imperfections and spontaneous mark-making with expressive abstract masses with burnt blues, vermilion, rust and warm copper. An air of sophisticated melancholy, confident presence, artistic imperfection, tactile painterly surface, premium contemporary illustration, expressive and organic, framed in vermilion, rust and warm copper tones that complement the scene, cinematic visual hierarchy, elegant asymmetrical composition with elements of decalcomania and gold leaf. Finally, add vhs grain.
