SteamPunk Alice in Wonderland

Artist's Comments

I painted this for the CG Society's Steam Punk Myth/Legends Challenge. Although I got the painting done in time, I didn't read the instructions properly and never submitted a large size format jpeg. I think it doesn't matter, because the competition was tough and I already had my favorites picked out among the other entries to win. Nevertheless, I like what I did, and hope to paint more steam punk fairy tales. I already have some ideas in mind. For this piece, I went through the whole gamut of subject matter before I picked Alice in Wonderland. I considered Lady of Shallot, La Dames sans Merci, King Arthur, and Joan of Arc. Eventually, I thought painting Alice would be more fun, with a giant mechanized caterpillar and some characters and critters from the story. I even stuck my dogs in it (again). Ripley as a puppy and my aussie rescue, Freckles. If you look carefully, Alice is reading Tesla's Wireless Transmission of Electricity.

Doktor A Caterpillar

From: www.ectomo.com/index.php/2008/09/29/moustache-monday-dokt....

Doktor A — master of the rivet, moustache and fez — is at it again applying his considerable skill to one of Lewis Carroll’s most famous creations, the hookah smoking caterpillar, turning him into a clockwork automaton. It will be on display at Rivet Gallery in Columbus, Ohio for their “Noxious Fumes” show which begins October 4th and runs through the 29th, meaning that you can drool in its very presence, should you be in the area.

A few words

I stumbled on James Ng art while visiting http://www.darkroastedblend.com/ .
Wonderful work , this is what i was looking for ''World Class Oriental Steampunk Art'' . The details are amazing . The Steampunk anachronism in each piece is perfectly represented . I really enjoy seeing steampunk in the context of an ancestral Oriental setting.

Since i lived in Asia for a few years ago I'm always fond of Oriental art and i have brought many souvenirs from my travels . in Asia , They put so much attention to details in their art . Now i must get one of these illustration it would match perfectly in my studio .

James Ng (pronounced Ing) was born in Hong Kong, where he spent most of his childhood drawing monsters and robots, making his own elaborate cardboard toys, and playing soccer. Ever since, he has been on the move between Hong Kong, Vancouver, Chicago and New York. His travels have greatly influenced him, allowing him to combine eastern and western cultures in his artwork.

Currently James is enjoying the freedom of being a freelance concept artist and illustrator. He is traveling from city to city while working on his lap top. Right now, he is enjoying the constant sunshine and breeze of summer in Vancouver, BC. One day, he hopes to start a design company with some friends, and maybe even direct a movie featuring all his monsters and robots.

Some of you may have heard, I had a piece stolen from me at Dragon Con. Not just some ordinary piece but a one of a kind Monicle that was to be in featured in a Steampunk Exhibit at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford this October.

I'm will pay $200.00 for it's safe return on a "no questions asked" basis.
I will pay $500.00 if it leads to the arrest of the one who stole it.

Remember, it is a one of a kind piece. There will never be another. If you see someone wearing it they are definately connected to the theft and a felony.

I will also produce a custom piece for anyone who gets the theif arrested. Have you been looking at one of those arms thinking $1499.00 is beyond your reach? You Get me this person and I'll make one just for you.

Sincerely,
Thomas Willeford

Video by Steampunk Jewelry designer Daniel Proulx

About Me :
Daniel Proulx is from Montreal. He makes wire-wrapped Steampunk jewelry with brass, copper and gemstones

‘In April of 2008 I started to make rings just for fun ... I spent several hours every day perfecting and developing my own technique to create an original design. I quickly started to make very retro-futurist model of rings. At that time I decided to embark on this adventure, quit my job and try to live on my jewelry full-time. One day a friend told me what I was doing was Steampunk. I researched the subject and fell in love with this culture. I always liked Steampunk but I didn't know there was a name for it.’
