Digital Artist:
Rado Javor
It is
hard to get a lot of background information about Rado Javor because he is
Slovak and his biographies all seem to be written in that language (or French,
for some reason). All that I could find
out is that he works in Photoshop, Corel Painter and 3DSMax, he studies
physical copies of many of the historical things he draws, and he is inspired by
Tolkien, Sherlock Holmes, colonial America, Halloween, and Star Wars. Fantasy Worlds of Rado Javor. 2010, Sept. 14. Weird Existence, Retrieved from http://www.weirdexistence.com/fantasy-worlds-by-rado-javor/
Javor’s
digital art looks a lot like old paintings.
His work is very detailed and mostly kind of monochromatic (in either
blue-gray or tan-gray). He seems to
create either historical scenes or futuristic scenes, but they both have the
same look, which is kind of dream-like. One
of his ship pictures (and he has a lot of ship pictures) that I really like is
the “Susan Constant.” I like the
monochromatic color scheme, the detail, the light, and the peacefulness of it. Digital Painting Gallery from Rado Javor. Gods of Art. Retrieved from http://godsofart.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Susan_Constant_by_Radojavor.jpg I also
like his “Prometheus” which is his fan art of the movie. I like these kind of
movies too, and I think Javor has a great look for a dark, futuristic movie
(although I guess you can’t make one in Photoshop). Retrieved from http://godsofart.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/prometheus_by_radojavor-d4kispb.jpg
Other
than the information discussed above, I could find out little about this
artist. He does appear to sell his art
on the internet through a dealer (price not specified). Rado Javor.
Fine Art America. Retrieved from http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/rado-javor.html Much of the work that he makes is concept art
for video games, like Empire: Total War.
But there is something about his pictures that works on its own—and he
has made several “best digital artists” lists.
