In celebration of LOST's final season and as a project of fan appreciation, 16 top designers and artists, who are also fans of the show, were commissioned to create artwork celebrating one of the series' most memorable, and unforgettable, "water cooler" moments. This ultimate "fan art" was then turned into labor intensive, hand-pulled screen prints, limited to an edition of just 300, with less than 200 available to the public through our websites. Each beautiful poster tells its own different story, allowing the fan to relive memorable and influential moments in an artistic manner, as the show's storied run comes to a close. Once this limited edition print has sold out, they will never be printed again.

The 3D tutorial is going to be delayed until next week. It's taking me a long time to prep all the models and images I need.

Instead, I'm going to share something I came across recently on Drawn!. (If you're a fan of illustration and animation, this site belongs in your bookmarks.)

I can't find much information about him other than his images, but I like what I see. Parfenov reminds me of the work of Tamara de Lempicka, one of my favorite artists.

Like de Lempicka, Parfenov's focus seems to be portraiture with the occasional landscape. I think the fact that these are paintings, and not vectors, is what makes them so appealing to me. The geometry is strong, but the natural colors and the blending soften things up. It's that "soft-machine" look that really appeals to my tastes.

Some of his likenesses are better than others, but overall he's got some striking pieces-- like our ol' buddy John, here. Check him out.
