The Gathering

What you see on the left could be an illustration of a bear, a hairy human being or some ghost-like figures playing around. But one thing that all our readers would agree to, its one beautiful illustration.

Isn't it?

This illustration comes from a brilliant artist, Hani Troudi and is known as 'The Gathering'.

Hani is a Damascus based artist, who is currently working as a full-time 3D Generalist and Motion Graphics artist at NewBoy Animation Studio.  Currently, Hani is studying Interior Design at the Fine Arts Faculty of Damascus University.

As a kid Hani loved cartoons, video games and drawing. According to him, "I always wanted to draw and throw away papers, but lately I've been trying to make my drawings worth keeping."

He has been in the 3D Architectural Visualization Industry since 2004 but lately he's focusing more on being a character artist, something that he loves. Hani's illustrations and motion graphics are a visual treat and his work has also been featured in many 2D and 3D magazines. Read on to more about Hani in our exclusive interview with him.
