Description
I cannot really say where this came from. It began as another male form with an abstract design (a kind of zebra pattern) applied to his skin. I was having trouble getting the texture map aligned on the different parts of his body, so I pulled it all into Blender (I find that mapping textures like this is easier in blender). Then I got it into my head that he looked like he was emerging from something... liquid, fabric... not certain. Then I reapplied the texture to the entire form and it started to take shape. I like the overall feel. He seems to be in the process of becoming something, or being born - so to speak. Thus the title. I'm really liking the empty space around him. I had a bit of that in a few other pieces. Not every design needs to have every inch filled with something. Sometimes, the emptiness helps tell the story... makes what's there a little more important.
