Deer, Julian Bonequi, Digital 3D Collage, 2014

In 2014, Mexico City-based artist Julian Bonequi uses digital drawing technology to create surreal – yet lifelike – animal portraits. I admire the project because it is very detail-driven. The detail involved in each of Bonequi’s 3D compositions captivates the eye, making even the most mundane joint on the leg of an insect into a point of intense interest. The inspiration of Bonequi comes from nature, which he portraits animals with vibrant colors and scientific structures. 

The source does not include the exact software or technique the artist uses. However, his possible 3D drawing tools may be Blender, ZBrush, Lightwave, etc. He may creates the shining pink and purple bubbles, bright blue doughnuts and red-orange tubes by these tools.

Creator’s artistic sensibility manifests by capturing normal animals and transforming them into hyper-detailed psychotropic beings from another reality. His works include stag, grasshopper, tiger, elephant, scorpion, etc.
