This artistic portrayal merges the essence of both traditional and modern illustrative methods, culminating in a captivating black and white pencil drawing of three fish. The drawing is detailed in a hybrid style reminiscent of James Gilleard, Chris Rahn, Zdzisław Beksiński, Alex Maleev, Wally Wood, and even touches of H.R. Giger’s surrealism. The composition features the fish swimming dynamically against a dark backdrop, illuminated by stark, contrasting light that simulates sunlight filtering through water. Vertical lines and rainwater effects add a dramatic, rain-soaked appearance, employing techniques akin to wet-on-wet painting. The high-contrast, grainy noise filter along with a monochromatic color scheme enhances the atmospheric and cinematic quality of the scene, achieving a gritty, ink wash art look with visible brush strokes and detailed hatching pen work.
