They are at it once again, these feisty wolves – generally chasing the Sunshine and Moon.
And Scandy Girl (a.k.a. Jonna Hyttinen) is right here to do that chase justice. Already accountable for some of the most unforgettable and fascinating artworks in our Minimal Version collection, Scandy Girl is no stranger to the Displate neighborhood drawing mythological creatures and our undivided notice are kind of her specialties.
We mostly centered on the previous when we discussed with her about the creation of Sunshine and Moon, our second Extremely Confined Edition.
Taming mythological beasts, one particular brush stroke at a time
Tackling a planet-ending design and style like Sun and Moon was not an quick endeavor, even for a seasoned veteran in Norse mythology art. But indicating no to Ultra Minimal Version was even more difficult:
I was contacted by Displate in early summer season about this new undertaking they have been working on, Extremely Confined Version. Out of Displate’s numerous ideas, I was a lot more drawn into the notion of the two wolves: 1 black, a single white, with a little something mythological added to the blend. This instantly reminded me of Norse mythology exactly where there are two pairs of renowned wolves: Geri and Freki, who accompanied Odin, and then Sköll and Hati, who are part of the fantasy the place one chases the Sun and the other the Moon in hopes of devouring them. At Ragnarök they finally catch up to their prey as the sky and the earth darken and collapse. I was enthusiastic to build Sköll and Hati, and I experienced a tremendous outdated painting of two wolves that I in no way completed. Displate liked the strategy of preserving their positions the exact same as in that sketch, so I began performing my way from there. Initial, I designed the two wolves on a different piece of paper. At the time I was carried out with them, I commenced preparing out the track record. At first, the massive circle in the background was supposed to be crimson, with runes, and so forth. But considering the fact that we preferred to carry out both the Moon and the Sunlight into that background, we resolved to modify the circle into the Moon. And I definitely like that improve, it was a joy to produce it even while it took me some time! Right after we put the two separate photographs collectively, I was extremely delighted with the result and also energized about what Displate would do with it, considering that their ULE will come with further facts and a bigger measurement!
Which is what I like the most about functioning with Displate: getting my individual copies of Constrained (now also Extremely Constrained!) Edition types! I appreciate having them all over and wondering about what other matters I can change my art into 🙂
So is Scandy Woman done with mythological beasts? Not a probability!
For rather some time I prevented carrying out mythological creatures (specially dragons) simply because I assumed I’m not experienced more than enough to do them justice. But once I took the initially action, my competencies stored enhancing! I was often intrigued in folklore and mythological factors – my favored books ended up usually fantasy/mythology linked and I cherished imagining these worlds in my head. Under no circumstances thought my art would take this kind of a drastic switch in the direction of that realm, but it has. I continue to really like finding out about all sorts of creatures all around the globe and I always get pleasure from telling these tales to my followers every time I’m submitting a new creature I drew! 😊
How our Layout Studio shone a light-weight to Sun and Moon
There is a estimate that goes: “even perfection has home for improvement”. That is specifically what our Design and style Studio established out to do right here:
When we observed the layout produced by Jonna, we were being impressed by how in-depth it was. Not just the shapes and other things, but the textures also.
We bought the wolves and the background separately, so our to start with career was to place them alongside one another and determine out a well balanced composition. We tested two coloration variants, 1 with a monochromatic history and a person with pink, to see which just one fits better. We decided to use the monochromatic 1, so the color would not distract from the wolves.
Next step was to take a look at the textures. There are lots of them there, but our priority was to continue to keep the wolves as the major subject matter, so we figured the relaxation shouldn’t be engraved far too considerably. If you look closely at the wolves, you can observe how in depth their fur is. We had to redraw every single one hair to build this amazing wavy fur. It was very time consuming, but the outcome was so really worth it!
Finally, for that excess, top quality finish, we determined to use “champagne” glitter. This shade was mixed by our Masters of Creation, made particularly for this style and design. We genuinely hope that you will get pleasure from the specifics of the Sun and Moon design and style just as considerably as we did putting it alongside one another!

Turns out that building an L-sized Ultra Restricted poster from a structure shrouded in myth can make for a fascinating tale by itself!
And that is what our Ultra Constrained Version series is all about: an Extremely Crew of distinguished artists, acquiring their work increased to the maximum expectations.
Look at out for our subsequent items and keep in mind that a new Extremely Limited Editions will fall once a thirty day period in only a several hundred copies every.
Stay tuned – your Ultra collection is only obtaining begun!
