Artist Review - Cryptid-Creations


Cryptid Creations is a Canadian artist who's adorable style immediately attracted me to following her work. I think the first thing I noticed about Cryptids work is how beautifully the characters are coloured, she utilises beautiful colour theory and blending techniques to create her own unique style.



The thing I like the most is watching how she remasters old characters such as Rocko the Kangaroo (first picture) and Stimpy (bottom picture) into her own style. Its something not many people really do, when it comes to this kind of fan art people usually try to represent the characters in the same or similar style. With Cryptid however this is not the case and its these conventions that really attracted me to her work.


I've never actually tried this style of artwork before so i'm really quite interested to try it out, though I imagine that its quite a bit harder than it looks despite its simple design.
If you want to scrawl through some beautifully designed and adorable work I would strongly suggest looking up Cryptid-Creations, you can find her work HERE
