Mixed media since this is a photo of a wood engraving heavily photomanipulated, airbrushed & textured.


Scene from John Milton's Paradise Lost.

Original is an engraving from 1870, by Gustave Doré, more info of him & his works here: [link]


I´ve always been a huge fan of engraving works by Doré and others, and have worked with a few pieces like this before on some cd-cover work. Unfortunately I don´t have permission to upload the earlier ones to DA, but this one isn´t used on anything yet so I can show it. Big thanks for checking out.


Stock-photo of the engraving is bought from iStockphoto.com, and you can see small parts of it in the detail-image linked above if you´re curious on seeing what part came from Doré and what´s my own touch. Textures used are my own.
