Apologies to everyone whose New Year resolutions included a diet, because this is Part 1 of a two part theme rather loosely connected to eating and
drinking. In Part 1 we’ve included several photo realistic images from Luca Pennisi, a beautiful trio of pears from Derek Cooper in a more painterly
style, and a classic stereogram from Gary Priester.
Luca Pennisi (lupen on TalkGraphics)
Luca was playing with us here. Two of the cherries are the original photo and two of them are drawings!
Gary Priester
Couldn’t resist this classic stereogram from the master of stereograms, Gary Priester. You can follow the Happy Cereal TalkGraphics thread, though it
carries a pun warning (“Is it a one off, or will it be a serial?”). You can also find a stereogram themed Inspirational Art in the drop down at the top of
this page (December 2007) with some more examples from Gary.
Derek Cooper
As usual Derek has contributed a beautiful illustration to the TalkGraphics Art Gallery forum, in this thread.
And just to clarify which is which, here is the wireframe
view. You can see the post in TalkGraphics here.
Lupen also contributed this study in metal reflections, you can find the TalkGraphics discussion here
and this fantastic coffee set – if you follow the thread you can see a textured version from RUSS-USSR and a discussion among perfectionists on the
shadows. You can see more of his work in the Xara Gallery @ https://www.xara.com/gallery/
