Matsaluba


Matsaluba, by Michael Files

I just completed this piece after losing my mind for three days trying to get it done. Feels great to be done, and I'm pretty happy with the results, first time I've really combined actual painting/contruction of a piece with digital painting on Photoshop. First time I used Modge Podge too, which is f*#&ing awesome s@*&! Oh my God I love it!


worship the Podge.

The piece will be part of the annual calender for The Global Awareness Project, being printed soon. The Global Awareness Project is a very wonderful organization started by my friends Carl Kerridge and Jessica Durivage to help promote charities and other wonderful NGOs, etc in the Myrtle Beach area. Important work for a booming area with rampant, often irresponsible development. I'm not sure which month I'm gonna be yet, but its exciting, lots of prints being made. Get yourself a calender when they come out. Stay posted, oh and here's a description of the piece below:
