Under the Influence - Magdiel Lopez (Liz Garcia)

 Magdiel Lopez is a digital artist known for his exceptional work in digital compositing, where he blends various visual elements to create highly stylized, and surreal compositions. His work usually combines real-world photography with digitally created textures, patterns, and effects, seamlessly merging the that which he has imagined, with what is real. Lopez's ability to manipulate light, shadow, and color allows him to create very dynamic and colorful environments. 

When it comes to elements, Lopez places a strong emphasis on contrast and texture. His use of lighting is noteworthy, as he often uses high contrast between light and shadow to create dramatic focal points and to guide the viewer’s eye through the composition. The layering of textures, from organic elements like clouds and water to more abstract, geometric forms, introduces a sense of depth and complexity to the work. Color plays a big role in his works too, he uses palettes that range from vibrant, saturated hues to muted, desaturated tones. 

There is also a sense of isolation in his work, as his characters or figures often are showcased alone. I want to focus and experiment, similar to him, with using contrast and textures within this project. I think it would be fun to create dynamic and colorful environments using his approach.
