Scenes
=DiSmeCha is really a new comer to the vector field but his artwork is remarkable! With it's vibrant one of a kind style, this artists works really stood out this part year. And it's for that reason and many more why =DiSmeCha is awarded th GPA for the Scenes gallery.
Can you introduce yourself in a few words?
I'm a 24 years old illustrator, I live in a flat in Paris with my wife with whom I work under an art trademark: Sweet Psychoid.
How did you discover vector art and why do you make it?
I discovered vector art when I had to create a website button. I immediately and irremediably fell in love with the 2D object mentality and its infinite cleanness. I keep doing vector art because one of my dreams is to print a building-sized illustration... or bigger.
How long have you been working with Vectors?
I work with vectors since January 2009.
How long does it typically take you to finish a piece?
From the rough sketch till the end, it takes me about 90 hours, diffused in 2 to 3 weeks for a detailed illustration.
What vector software do you prefer?
Inkscape is my favourite vector software since it provides the renders I want, while being Open source, with an interface mentallity I perfectly understand.
Why Scenes? What is it about them that inspires you?
Scenes is the field where I can push to the utmost degree the allegory of a concept, a vision, a feeling, etc. I want to tell as much as possible in a single piece.
Do you have any future vector plans?
I think illustration is kind of limited to be applied only for visual purposes like prints and such. I want to physically materialize my vectors.
I will explore the print and cut possibility (without becoming a T-shirt designer).
I'm actually working with my wife on a collection that will hopefully be released in Spring.
Is there anything else you would like to say?
I was always inspired by sadness, anger and negative feelings. The support I receive since the day I joined DA made me discover a new range of good feelings to be pushed by; so I'd like to dedicate this award to all my supporters especially to my elder brother for his fundamental help and support. Thank you so much.
I'll be on the lookout for whatever you and your wife are up to. Can't wait for that "building-sized" illustration.
Congratulations!!!
CONGRATULATIONS
Thank you!
