Entry for Crypto Logo Art Challenge Stellar Edition (Round 8)
This is my entry for the Crypto Logo Art Challenge Stellar Edition :
Inspiration
For the contest, my inspiration comes from Jean-Michel Basquiat, famous American artist of the 1980s. I remembered in the exhibition some years ago in Toronto (at the AGO) about his taste for science. With the Stellar logo, I found some similarities, and Stroopy, the Head by Basquiat.
Untitled, 1984
Untitled (Head), 1982, sold for $110,487,500 in 2017
Processus
With Paint.net, the background, I used on old frame used by Basquiat. Then I used some references like the crown and the annotations on the canvas. I was difficult to keep the style of Basquiat without to be too childish.
All the success for all the participants.
