In this captivating artwork, we delve into the timeless allure of the woman in the red dress, drawing a compelling parallel to the unforgettable Jessica Rabbit, an emblematic figure of the 80s and 90s. As we venture into the realm of nostalgia, we recall the cinematic masterpiece “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” where we were introduced to the charismatic characters of Roger and the beguiling Jessica Rabbit.

Jourds, a remarkable woman I encountered during my professional journey, exudes an infectious energy that naturally draws people towards her. Little did I know that she is also a radio presenter and a TV personality. It was upon seeing her Instagram post that the imagery of Jessica Rabbit came to mind, igniting my creative spark.

The red dress, symbolizing an undeniable magnetism and the ability to command attention wherever one goes, unites both Jourds and the iconic Jessica Rabbit on a metaphorical red carpet. Through meticulous line work in Illustrator, followed by the infusion of vibrant base colors, the artwork comes to life. The transition to Photoshop allows for the addition of shading and the application of desired effects, giving depth and dimension to this extraordinary piece. As we envision this captivating scene, we can almost hear Roger Rabbit’s disbelief echoing in the background.

Aubameyang reveals Black Panther mask was tribute (Edited with Photoshop Ai Generative tool)

My artistic inspiration for this piece was ignited when I witnessed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang donning the mask of The Black Panther. As an avid enthusiast of comic books, manga, and anime, this moment resonated deeply with me, and I was compelled to create a unique artwork showcasing the Arsenal striker.

My initial step involved gathering the essential references required to craft this piece while infusing it with my distinctive style. I observed that Aubameyang’s iconic celebration, with his arms outstretched wide, mirrored a pivotal scene from the Black Panther movie. In this scene, King T’Challa reveals himself to Killmonger, dispelling the notion of his demise.

Intriguingly, when King T’Challa activates his suit, it seemingly engulfs and transforms his clothing. This transition resonated with me, and I decided to depict it gradually emanating from the panther chain around his neck, symbolizing the genesis of his formidable suit as it envelops his body. This artistic choice serves as a visual metaphor, capturing the essence of Aubameyang’s transformation, akin to the emergence of a superhero, and pays homage to the rich narrative of The Black Panther.
