The savage nature of artistic illustrator (II) and (III) Toundra


We were not few people a few years ago we were captivated by the majestic cover of (II) Toundra. There was something magical about that fantastic portrait, something powerful, something epic that went beyond the colors and strokes that characterized this great work of art. Today, some three years after all that, Toundra back to get his weaponry past with other similar cover that makes us discover the dark and savage world of one of the best rock bands national post.
Cruzándonos lines with guitarist Victor we learned that the illustrator behind both works is the New Yorker Lewyta Chelsea Greene. His work in (III) is pure and without retouching, whereas in (II) Victor, Toundra guitarist who is also a great graphic designer, eventually to define the colors a bit so that the final product was as beautiful as possible.
Despite having European ancestry and Koreana, Chelsea Greene Lewyta born and raised in the Hudson Valley of New York. Since very little the artist lived immersed in the fantasy that held in his head. She loved to draw everything that was imagined and, as is evident from an early age he felt a strong attraction to the figures of the forests, wild animals and the fantastic stories populated by fairies, dinosaurs and other creatures of the most ferocious. After conducting several studies of fine arts the young New Yorker decided to step forward to position itself as a freelance artist. Some of his most famous clients are brands like Tiffany and Co., Victory Records or known the New York Observer.
Reviewing your portfolio we have found that the covers of the two discs Toundra are not far from an exception in the style of his career. All artwork that Chelsea have made oppressive stories innocent human figures are inevitably linked to bloody beasts. In turn, the artist used to introduce a strange atmosphere and sensual ténebremente each and every one of his works.
For now can not even access the online store Lewyta Greene Chelsea but we very much aware of future developments in this regard. We like all his works, even that little grim tribute to the movie "The Ring" (Ringu), so we would not hesitate for a second to get hold of one of these amazing posters to frame them and hang well on the walls of our homes.
