He who knows how to appreciate colour relationships, the influence of one color on another, their contrasts and dissonances, is promised an infinitely diverse imagery.
- Sonia Delaunay
Color is my day-long obsession,
joy and torment.
- Claude Monet

Marc Gabbana

Posted by Charley Parker at 7:51 am

Marc Gabbana
Concept artist and illustrator Marc Gabbana has worked on films like Star Wars: The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, Hellboy, 8 Mile, War of the Worlds and The Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions. He has also done cover illustration for Image Comics and Dark Horse Comics, among others.

Gabbana’s paintings utilize intense color relationships and textural detail that make the images “pop”. His work can also display a keen sense of visual humor.

He works in acrylic and gouache and sometimes in a type of acrylic called cell vinyl, an animation paint that dries rapidly to a flat finish and allows him to work quickly.

    This is a random question. My name is Sarah Sutton and I am trying to find a Margaret Gabanna who had a maiden name Sutton. Coincidentally I am an artist too and I like your work a lot!
