Exposé 10

A few months ago I entered some of my illustrations into Ballistic Publishing's tenth anniversary of their digital art annual Exposé 10.  It's with great excitement that we're pleased to announce that three of Lamin Illustration & Design's pieces made into the very prestigious collection of the top fantasy illustrators from around the world.  The due date for the publication to hit stores has yet to be announced but we'll definitely keep you posted once it does hit the shelves.  In the meantime you'll find the pages for the book posted below.  Thank you so much for all of your support!


Here are the selected images:

Solara


The challenge in working on this image was giving an overall softness to the light that I have streaming in through the window.  With most of my images there are one or two light sources found, but in this image I wanted there to be an overall warmth of light washing over the character that conveys a sense of calmness and ease because today is the day that this confident young dragon woman will be presented as a new born to the counsel as heir to her families throne.  Her name is Solara our dragon queen.
