Contest Brief

I am searching for an artist to create a specific drawing for me. The drawing will be of a castle, very simple with just two or three towers, on the coast with rocks and surf in the foreground but done in a semi-realistic style to add depth and character to the subject. While maintaining the nuanced detail of realism, I want the distinct stylization that semi-realism brings.

The color scheme is particularly important. The castle should be in shades of purple it should be at nightl
predominantly be in tones of black and purple. The use of white is also desirable to create contrast and highlights. This unique palette will bring a distinct flavor to the artwork, and managing that with taste and subtlety is vital. The castle should be very simple a couple of tall towers with lights in the small windows. It should be on a coastline with rough boulders at the bottom of the castle and surt surging around them. These rocks should be in the foreground and the castle should be quite close and towering above.

Ideal candidates for this job should:

- Be skilled in semi-realistic cartoons
- Have experience or comfort with non-traditional color palettes

AI entries will not be accepted

To help me select the right freelancer, please include a very rough outline showing the perspective and style to that demonstrate your ability and understanding these needs. Looking forward to seeing your proposals.

    Hi. A very important detail is whether you accept AI generated images or want the original work of the artist. What I've seen so far of the submissions are purely AI generated images.

      Thank you, I didn't realise that would be the case. I have updated the ad and rejected all the AI images.
