Baba Yaga

So anyways, this is Baba Yaga. Baba Yaga is basically a Russian witch who possesses teeth of brass, and a mortar and pestle which she uses to ride through the sky. She lives in a house that walks around on chicken feet, and her garden fence is made out of human bones, proving that Russia has the most kick-ass witches. Ever. So this started out as as a pencil sketch in the corner of my notebook, when I was much much younger. I scanned it in, then dropped in various layers of dirt and played with the colour saturation and balances to get it to its current state. The blood stains are the result of basically scanning a page in at high contrast, and then using the magic wand set to high sensitivity to crop patches out. For sale! Giclee prints on, you guessed it, Hahnemuller paper.

Infographics and flowcharts. And flippen' flashback arrestors!

Information graphics that I made with graphic design and illustration in Cape Town for e-learning and science communications.

But seriously, if you need any of the above things which I won't repeat for the sake of my own and my 14 fans' sanity, drop me a mail already, guy! red.swifts(at)gmail.com. Just put your own @ sign in there and I'll sort you out with design that will make your eyes party. Anyways. Here is a little flow chart that I made, while I was at Bridgewater Learning, to depict the procurement procedure at AREVA. To be honest, I'm pretty stoked with how it came out, especially since the initial form was a spider's nest of a document! Procurement ProcedurePLOSION! You like...

Pulse Artwork Part 2

Right... Part 2 So I reverted with some pencils... here is the inked version below... I've added a championship belt to drape over His shoulder--I actually spent quite a lot of time on it's design--it says "King of Kings" and has angels holding the earth, and lots of stars. Unfortunately you can't see it... sigh. Besides "King of Kings" I've added various references to the other names of Christ throughout the image. The subsidiary buckles have the greek capital letters for alpha and omega on them, surrounded by a compass rose, and the tattoos on Christ's forearms are the Greek words and , "faithful" and "true". The heart is burning--which is a direct reference to catholic iconography, but obviously the meaning is different here (read Part1 ). The client was quite happy with the conflation of iconography, so we went with it. Inks and layers The coloured version is below... With the colouring and titling, I heavily r...
