Good morning to my friends from Hive, it is a pleasure to be with you again bringing you the demonstration of my artistic, photographic and digital work that started from a study made of a prehistoric fish found on the African coast called Coelacanth.

"The Coelacanth".

The Coelacanth is a prehistoric fish that was found in the 30's at great depths in the sea off the eastern coast of southern Africa, this finding was of great importance since this incredible fish it was believed extinct for more than 70 million years, the disturbing thing about this story and it has me intrigued is that this specimen is exhibited in the Museum of the Sea of ​​Cumaná -edo Sucre-Venezuela, the Coelacanth as a prehistoric specimen was treated by a taxidermist to dissect this species so that the animal is preserved for a long time in good condition.

Note: it is important that you stop to visualize each image very well so that you can see the movement and great variety of colors and space where the image is recreated.

Here take the image that was presented previously to work it artistically and digitally.

There I worked the dark background color to highlight the prehistoric species.

In this image I wanted to work on the coelacanth giving it plasticity with a kind of whitish gel to highlight it and be able to retouch it, you can also see that the atmosphere and
spatial.

Intensifying the pigments with several layers of Photo Shop we add a red point of reference that will continue to work.

We take advantage of playing with space trying to give it a dark, nocturnal atmosphere by placing white, red and yellow dots in light tones with the intention of making it resemble distant stars and give it visual depth.

I love playing with the colors of vivid fauvism and saturating the pigments taking the artwork with digitization into a 3D format.

Here I played with the coelacanth trying to make its details take it to a surreal image giving it shape, light, volume and space.

Light intensity was given with airbrushing giving more clarity to the prehistoric species.

As we can see here, I gave life to my beloved coelacanth, who was looking for his astral world, which he did not find in the depths of the sea, thus being one of the most sought-after species in the world.

The prehistoric species moving in the interplanetary universe to be part of prehistory to an alien specimen the arrow indicates that it found the direction of its two planet.

The coelacanth is now enjoying its freedom that the world, neither terrestrial nor marine, ever gave it; I will never see him stuffed by a taxidermist anymore, I prefer to see him happy on the Hive platform by the Alien Art Hive community as a great tribute to the universal coelacanth.

I hope you liked my fantasy that goes from the marine prehistory to the space alien of the universe.

Thank you very much for looking at my blog to see what a digitally intervened coelacanth actually looks like.
