First of all I would like welcome you to my blog where I am going to write about contextual influences in art.
Also, I would l
ike to write a little bit about my favourite contemporary artist, which is Dylan Cole. He is one of the most appreciated matte painters in the art industry. You may ask what is matte painting. Well, it is a visual representation (used mostly in flims) of a landscape, alien planet, apocaliptyc vision of a city or anything that cannot be filmed, don't exist or is to expensive to film. It mixes airbrushing techniques with photo manipulation.
Back to the artist - Dylan Cole graduated from UCLA with a degree in fine art and now uses his painting skills to create digital art. At the first stage of his career he worked on small projects and concentrated at freelance work as a concept artist. His first big project was Daredevil. After that he started to work on important films and productions such as The Lord Of The Rings, The Chronicles Of Riddick, I Robot, The Chronicles Of Narnia, 2012 and The Happines Factory for CocaCola.
For his stunning mette paintings he uses Adobe Photoshop - to paint with the Wacom Intuos3 tablet, Cinema 4D - for its great camera maping tools and After Effects - to compose footage with matte.

What I like about his work is amazing feeling of depth. Also I really like the realism of his pieces - somethimes you think it is a real picture and then you realise it's a paiting. All his works are really imaginative, creative and detailed. In my opinion he is the best matte painter ever. Be sure to check out his demo reel and his gallery.
