Mythical Creatures

A creative project in net.art by Brian Vargas

The Goal

The goal of the project For my three-piece net art, My goal is to focus on the idea of mythical creatures in a funny way and with the addition of some dark humor. If I were to focus on a more serious way, a good example would be animals considered a myth like Mothman or even the Loch ness monster and compare it to what people believe maybe or something. The creative way is having “Dinosaurs” be considered mythical because I’ve come across people who don’t believe in dinosaurs, or they consider them fictional. I want to try to create a fun idea in mind for the overall series of these in a way that works in the end. On some chance, I got some fun interactive ideas for it. I want to try having three settings throughout the entire Net Art series.

Mood Board

My mood board consists of basic images of animals and settings that jogged my thought process. I created the Mood Board through Pinterest since it was a quick process to get out of the way. Click here

Artist's Comment

The initial idea was just to have 3 settings, water, space, and a landscape as mentioned. However, I realized that I wanted to have a narrative. What you’ll see is quick progress between an empty canvas too what it is now. As the final product was a fun narrative that started underwater to land in space and you get to look around in the space portion with UFO or a shooting star.
