Beach TRIP

This is a 1/1 piece that I call, "Beach Trip".

This is also my genesis piece on Foundation!

It is inspired by the Man on the Moon trilogy by Kid Cudi. Cudi's music inspired me and carried me through the majority of my adolescent years with tracks like, "Soundtrack 2 my Life". You can see his influence with the space/galaxy themes throughout my work.

I created this with an extensive process through multiple programs, beginning with a RAW photograph I took at La Jolla Beach in California. I then put it into Lightroom and made color adjustments > Photoshop to add the stars in the sky > Back to Lightroom to add the warping effect and color grading > After Effects to put the lasers and rings in the photo. After all that you have the final product - "Beach TRIP"
