Animalistic Digital Illustrations

Sylvia Ritter Uses Computer Software to Paint Fantasy Figures

— August 24, 2016 — Art & Design
Sylvia Ritter, an artist based in Germany, has been creating digital illustrations, paintings and even developing games for some time now. She's consistently added to her collection of fantastical renditions, with some of her more recent work surrounding animals in supernatural settings.

Included is a koala shown meditating with a crown of leaves atop its head, a monkey holding the moon above itself with a magical force and a boar with a futuristic backdrop.

One digital illustration that especially stands out is Sylvia Ritter's work of a sheep wearing a wolf's head and fur as a headdress -- imagining what it would look like if the roles of predator and prey were reversed. In order to create the animal portraits, Sylvia Ritter reportedly used a software called 'Krita.'
