Adaptation: Play With Colour and Light

Looking at the older concepts, I started to work with lighting to get the plants to glisten and look laden with jewellery.
I also, put in the moon as that is a very important aspect of the story.
I put in patterns on each object to provide a sense of intricacy. I also worked with symmetry again and provided depth, which was amiss in some of the previous concepts.

I am quite pleased with these as they reflect what I had in mind for the garden. I wanted it to be something pretty to look at and I am satisfied with the emotions of these digital paintings.

Adaptation: Deep Within The Garden

Here are two examples of my 'fortune teller' garden. I added depth and intricate pattern to drown the viewer in a sea of uneasy emotion while still maintaining a positive atmosphere.

Adaptation: Environments: Surface Pattern with Fog

Adaptation: Environments: Surface Pattern

After watching Sita Sings The Blues (2008) by Nina Paley, I got a clear idea of how I could work with the surface patterns and how they would compliment each other.
This is the first in the experiment to see the chaotic effect of patterns in an environment. After this, I shall proceed to experimenting with the textures in Maya.

Adaptation: Environment Concepts

In keeping with the collage idea, I put together some environments in black and white (upon Phil's suggestion) to play with the depth. I also made it in the style of northern Indian paintings- in a way a flat, 2 dimensional tapestry would look.
The setting of the story is in the mountainous regions of India. As a result, there is a lot of fog as well.

These are the first two concepts. More to come! =D
