Character TRIPTYCH - ILLUSTRATION COLLECTION - fRAMED ONE OF A KIND
Character TRIPTYCH
The artwork is all completed I just need to build the frame!
One of my many personal projects, this is a series of character illustrations that I’ve designed to be a traditional triptych. (A greek routed word used to describe a set of works that comes in a set of three)
Usually three panels or frames, originating more towards classical altarpiece decoration which would thus be shown or displayed with the work or frames that were hinged together and unfolded during services. The centerpiece usually being larger image or frame of the three, with the two smaller bookend pieces. It could also be curated together and is available in equal parts.
This set features three original characters, if you look at the mock up below it is Vasili on the left, Avriel Drahn featured in the center, Vasha on the right.
I started the concept for the centerpiece (Drahn) casually in the fall of 2019 and have built up the project around him. Thus creating the other illustrations and coloring and finishing them together to create a lush and vibrant matching set of paintings.
I’ve quickly tossed together a photo mock up including some of the frames I currently have on hand and that is featured below. I measured the flat width of the frames and the entire thing would sit at just shy of 40" of wall space, plus room for hardware. I hope to take this to shows and use it as a narrative centerpiece. Until then, I shall update this once I have engineered the hinges and have had the prints framed and hung.
