The Living Room
The Living Room was created for an assignment to design a creature, but instead I made the environment itself the living creature. The scene is inspired by deep sea and alien-like organisms and plants, but it is not underwater. The glowing, vibrant colors are drawn from bioluminescent life and surreal, otherworldly environments.
