I made this last year year as an exercise in Photoshop illustration for the 40th Anniversary of the moon landing.
Apart from the background texture it was created entirely in photoshop using gradients and layer styles. Here’s the big(ger) version.
“Progress is not inevitable, it requires commitment. There are setbacks and regression but I leave this place still optimistic that Australians will seek and find in their representatives declarations and deeds that elevate hope above fear, tolerance above prejudice and that they may be proud of laws made by Parliamentarians and the contribution they make to help build a fair, decent and civil society for quickly coming generations.”
- Petro Georgiou
Select Av is a blog dedicated to inspiring work in any medium. It’s a chance for me to share news and resources with other creative types and let people know what I’m working towards and where I’m coming from.
‘Av’ is about perspective; it’s the switch on my camera that allows me to set the aperture. A narrow aperture keeps everything in focus whereas a wide aperture isolates one small detail and throws the rest of the scene out of focus. I want to take the same approach with my posts here- sometimes looking at the big picture and other times the individual steps in the creative process.
Most of all Select-Av is my chance to acknowledge and promote the many artists whose ideas and work have helped me along the way.
