Diamond Dog Detectives – (with story) Digital art

Diamond Dog Detectives – The Story

Many years ago a wealthy, Rhodesian mining magnet found the illusive “Great Diamond of Africa”. Actually, it was Bedford & Bertie, the world famous dog detectives who located the diamond. Cecil Rhodes later suspiciously died, diamond-less and Bedford & Bertie who came from very humble beginnings, ended up in their very own magnificent country estate.
This picture is an ironic look at both Rhodes and Bedford&Berties lives.
If you look at the picture closely enough, you can almost make out Bertie sniggering to Bedford, “Diamond, what diamond!!!”
For the first drawing in the series I put together pictures, some drawn from my own photographic collection, i digitised and enhanced the picture. After this I followed a process of layering digital masks together. I then created 25 versions of the “tunnel” pictures and mashed them together into a collage.

CUSTOMER INFORMATION

All my artwork works are digital creations. There are separate layers of drawings laid on top of each other using the same methodology as David Hockney’s digital drawings “Fresh pictures of a very beautiful world”.
The portraits are drawn almost like a police photo fit. There is also layering of colour and all pieces are manipulated digitally 100’s to 1000’s of times. This allows for a complexity and texture in my electronic works.
To create even more depth and texture each work of art is printed onto finest art photographic paper, using the Giclée Hahnemühle print methodology.

Every print is numbered and priced accordingly.

The picture will be shipped within 14 days of payment.
