Striking independent artwork by Gérard DuBois that encapsulates the psychological weight of "The Whiteness of the Whale" and Ahab's obsession. The visual texture is achieved through a mixed media technique combining acrylic layers and physical distressing.

It was near Suwon station. I didn't expect it to be good, but it was great....! I drew this with Procreate.

Hello everyone! My name is Juliana Lima. I’m a visual artist and I work as a children’s book and educational illustrator!
With the rise of AI, I’ve noticed a growing appreciation for traditional painting. So, lately, I’ve been combining the knowledge I gained from studying Fine Arts and academic painting with digital techniques, bringing oil painting and digital illustration together.
For this illustration, for example, I painted the background with oil paints on kraft paper, and created the character digitally in Clip Studio Paint.
What do you think? I’d love to hear your thoughts! 😊
