Edge of Technology - Article Illustration

This was a fun illustration piece I had the privilege of working on for Answers Magazine.  

The biggest challenge was making a 2D illustration feel like it had depth.  I used vector shapes stacked on eachother to give the feel that the man was standing in a tunnel.  Below is some of the vector shapes I started with.  

True Love

Here’s another personal project I finished up last week. After working on the “Broken For You” piece, I wanted to push the polygon technique further.  

While doing the research for this project I came across stain glass pieces of art depicting the crucifixion of Christ and wanted to bring some of the same feel into this illustration. 

The scripture that came to mind while working on this was John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."  

This is probably the first verse I ever memorized and have heard all my life.  However, now that I'm a father this verse has taken on a deeper meaning and has shown me a glimpse of God's love.  I can't imagine what God went through giving up His only son for the sin of man kind.  This has to be love in it's truest form.
