Roadtrip p2


03 Avr 2013


This was something Jordy (link) and I were dreaming of doing once; going on a roadtrip in our own little Europe.

So we did!

20 days of adventure by car from Belgium through France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy till Florence (deepest point) and back up via France.
A total of about 4.000km of eyepleasure, taking a bunch of photos, painting and meeting new ppls.
I drove about 200km a day via the small roads and we took a few days now and then to rest and paint in plein air. We mostly slept in youth hostels, but inevitably in the car and outside as well.
On the right is just a small selection of the pictures I took in chronological order. Notice how every 75km everything changes, from snow to spring-weather, from the seaside to the mountains, all just a day separated.

It was a great life experience and I encourage everybody to do this at least once!

Enjoy :)

So I rendered a scene from the project. Did some research and painted the cellar/brewery, its more just the cellar of the bar but the owner likes to brew his custom beverages :).

The first idea of being immersed in the scene by sitting inside the cellar seemed cool, so after some sketches I made a 3D blockout to check out some lighting possibilities and camera angles. After all it wasn't really what I wanted. I wanted to make a nice painting explaining the whole without losing its character as some technical drawings can do. By keeping it loose and painterly you still get the right feeling with the piece. I hope you like it :)

Here are the final with the WIPs next to it.

Here are some attemps at visualizing the bar from some angles, most didn't please me so didn't get finished.
