Do you actually know how valuable your artistic talent is? Not only
that you can amaze other people with your painted works, because
they do not have this gift. Rather you have the power to create
your own worlds, creatures and sceneries, which do not exist in
reality and which no high-end camera, no matter how advanced, can
capture. In the past, this ability was especially in demand in
airbrush art, because painting techniques were used for technical
illustrations that could not be photographed, or for matte
paintings in movies, to create landscapes that you cant find on
earth. Today, when these tasks are done by other techniques, these
motifs have almost disppeared from airbrush artists agenda. For
hobby artists, photorealism is often a challenge enough; the
professionals earn their money with custom painting and fulfill the
motif wishes of the customers.
For some artists, however, the creation of fantasy motifs has not lost any of its appeal on the contrary: Thanks to a flood of templates, it has become even easier to play out ones own creativity. With the motif of the fantasy airbrush spaceship, Mexican-American artist Gerald Mendez has fulfilled a long-cherished dream considering himself some kind of crazy. Hugo Maciel is a big fantasy fan, too. While he usually puts the well-known fantasy motifs of other artists on T-shirts, this time he shows us in his mermaid artwork that he can also create his own motifs.
For those who prefer to use well-known and popular characters from fantasy books and films, Neimar L. Duarte and the two German brothers Stefan Koppel and Dimitri Zaharcenko demonstrate how these motifs can be applied to surfaces such as bass guitars and helmets. Last but not least, the Colombian artist Adriano Ayerbe turns himself into a fantasy motif: with clown make-up on his face, the artist slips into the role of his protagonist and thus is turning the worlds upside down.
In two exciting interviews we also take a look behind the scenes of two artists who somehow have their parallels: Magoo Felix lives and works in the field of tension between painting and RocknRoll and thus is mastering the not always easy everyday life of an artist in Brazil. Just like Gentry Riley: The artist from Kentucky was lucky to get in touch with Gene Simmons from KISS and became the personal designer of Simmons´ famous axe guitars.
In this sense, we would like to encourage you to leave the familiar paths in your art and to dare to create your own imaginative new works. Because especially in the fantasy area there is no right or wrong your creativity counts!
Greetings from the ASBS Team
