Noah's Arc

Noah's Arc is a topic that so many artists have tried to interpret. One of my favorite interpretations thus far, would have to be this series by Spanish illustrator and designer Martin Leon Baretto. There is so much to love about this series: textures, layering, awesome color pallete, interesting shapes, long composition, and balance. I think the visual interest is really enhanced by the tall and thin composition, and the balance of overall piece, like just the small Moses and tower above the water in the first illustration, or the hanging anchor in the second one. Overall its a pretty cool series.Martin Leon Baretto is a freelance illustrator and designer based in Madrid. He mainly does children's and editorial illustration and design. His whole portfolio is awesome (we may have to feature some of his work again). He has such an interesting mix of styles and techniques using a lot of scanned in images and textures in his work. Everything is new and interesting within his portfolio, yet he still has a very recognizable style with his layered illustrations. Check his website or Behance out.
