Armadillo by Mornin’

Created for the 50th Armadillos Project, this tribute to the song ‘Amarillo by Morning’ by George Strait incorporates references to the lyrics, telling a story about a traveling cowboy bull rider, with some relation to my experience and trials as a traveling working artist. See the reference to this years Armadillo Christmas Bazaar?

Several months of research, concept development & planning. I commissioned the main model and bought a couple more for characters and inspiration. Complex photographic work, asset creationm and digital painting.
