It's a work about life and the passage to the next reality, whatever your belief may be in this as I leave that up to the viewer. It takes into account creatures that soar in the sky and the seas whether current or extinct. There are some details I'm still figuring out and letting them come to me on their own time (meaning, I'm not forcing any issues here). If no more inspiration comes to me, then this work is done and I will move on to the next piece.]]> Thu, 01 May 2008 15:23:28 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/618260

just a personal exploration to try to understand the myriad of things happening in my life right now. this was done without anything in mind but the intent to relax and paint from the heart.
all pshop with a little bit of alienskin's exposure for lighting details.
i don't know, but it's as if i stepped into a dali painting within an oyster shell. i don't think i understand anything any better, but it was nice to have a breather.
cheers,

Every once in a while you get a fun opportunity to put your knowledge to work, but in a more atmospheric and abstract way.
That's what happened in this case, a joint effort with Senior Art Director, Don Barnett who works for Lynda.com. He's a friend and mentor of mine and having this chance was a real treat! I did the initial layouts and concepts based on his thoughts...all in Photoshop....and then Don had his hand in it to take it to final. I've enjoyed the Lynda.com videos for some time now....being a part of the 'team' is an honor. Hope to do another one soon.

If you want to see the video, or at least a couple clips of it, go here: http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=470]]> Sun, 03 Feb 2008 19:47:25 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/371914

This frontispiece grayscale illustration for "Out of Thin Air" a book by Dr. Peter Ward. Due on stands in Oct, '06. This battle between predator and prey focuses on the lungs, since this is what the book is all about.]]> Mon, 19 Jun 2006 19:05:28 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/427293

A standard profile view of a male Sockeye salmon, ocean form. The client, a spawning salmon expert, needed the fish to look alive and not like a pinned butterfly. Photo references aided in the final form of this image. ]]> Thu, 09 Nov 2006 07:39:37 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/469446

Week 1 of Don Seegmiller's 'Monster Character Painting' focused on the eyes. This was one of several short session digital painting I did to increase my visual library of eye types/options.]]> Fri, 02 Mar 2007 07:04:31 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/427309

A study I did a while back in hopes of strengthening my hand-eye coordination. Worked side by side with a photo reference. Learned quite a bit about myself with this project.]]> Thu, 09 Nov 2006 08:13:10 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/537560

A difficult project (view/angle + layered ghosted anatomy) to show vascular anatomy and the actual procedure goals taking a superficial vessel and connect deep to a vessel to bypass an obstruction. Be used for print, web and presentation needs for a prestigious and innovative neuroscience institute in Seattle.]]> Fri, 07 Sep 2007 18:24:39 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/427312

This cover art is a bit old, but it still does the job in my book. Done in Illustrator and touched up in Photoshop, this art focused on the importance of understanding hypotonic solution (eg what is delivered to the patient via an IV bag) not being a universal for fluid maintenance. The lettering was done using the warp tool in Illustrator - one of the best tools ever. ]]> Thu, 09 Nov 2006 08:26:05 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/480449

Recently completed a cover for researchers submitting to Nature magazine. To make the cover means two things: the content and the art are of a caliber that best represents Nature.
What's going on? The quick skinny is this little green hormone seated inside the blue protein creates a glue when the magenta protein interfaces with the blue protein. My image shows the 'reaction' of the adhesion.
The imagery is 3D in molecular source, crystallography. Composited and composed in Photoshop and Painter.

This was a mock up layout for Cancer Cell Magazine. It didn't get in, but this was an interesting and difficult project to work on. I guess editorial is just that: a constant challenge. At any rate, this was a piece unraveling some of the mysteries behind pancreatic cancer with the selected locations at the head and tail of the pancreas and the various types of histologic pathology going on at each region that was pertinent to my client's research. The client is a super talented doc at the Fred Hutch in Seattle.
It's a photo montage of a puzzle integrated with my illustration, in case you were curious.]]> Fri, 31 Aug 2007 15:31:54 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/503741

One slide of a series showcasing the location of certain sensory spots on the cerebral cortex. The sections of the spinal cord were important for the client to draw color coded lines depicting where the axonal pathway goes throughout the spinal cord.]]> Tue, 05 Jun 2007 03:40:25 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/503736

This is one of many illustrations for HIVWebStudy.org.
Figured it was time to show more of my biomedical illustration content on this gallery of mine.
I had shown this in color last time, but it was in need of modifications. This wasn't the final selection, but it was my favorite of the bunch. Since it's my gallery, you're seeing it here. ]]> Tue, 05 Jun 2007 03:28:11 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/427296

This is a digital study of a Peck (even though the artwork credits Hogarth - my mistake) illustration of the human skull - by the looks of the brow, it was probably a male.
Done in Photoshop and labeled in Illustrator.
This was an online course here at CGSociety. ]]> Thu, 09 Nov 2006 07:45:46 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/427303

This is my humorous take on an octopus for a recent 2DArtist competition that won third place. That said, it earned a spot in the e-zine and a full tutorial. Fun to do!

I enjoyed this image, so I'm sharing it with you. A bit of an oldie, but heck...it's all good. This is a hairy beauty named Weiland. I can go into detail why, but why? ]]> Tue, 05 Jun 2007 03:47:22 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/469444

One of the many doodles I did during Don Seegmiller's 'Monster Character Painting' online course. This was fairly early on...I can't tell ya how much I learned during this course!]]> Fri, 02 Mar 2007 07:00:13 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/382574

Picture a gigantic whale in space that means no harm, but does so when it replenishes its system via solar power and then dives back into the deep of space and time while the end begins for that system.]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 22:43:18 +0000 http://redehlert.cgsociety.org/gallery/412490

The attack....the diversion....the escape.
Kind of a graphic novel approach to explain how an octopus might escape a predatorial attack.
