Hello friends and my dear #LMAC community, today I want to bring you a different proposal. Inspired by the art of René Magritte and especially one of my favorite works, "The Son of Man", I want to propose a creative exercise where you take any universal work of art as a reference and make your own digital interpretation in your own style. It doesn't have to be a direct copy of the work; you can add elements, remove parts, or make a completely new reinterpretation.

This exercise will undoubtedly be a good way to practice our skills and learn about the use of color, lights, and composition from the great artists. Take the necessary time to innovate and experiment thanks to the advantage of digital, and if you are daring, don't just stick to a static image and venture into animations and other media. In advance, I know the results will be very good and creative.

The Son of Man" by René Magritte

Since I started to be interested in art, without a doubt, this is one of the works that has captured my attention the most. Perhaps there is something of an attempt at surrealism in me. "The Son of Man" by René Magritte has an aura of mystery, evoking mixed feelings and making me reflect on the inner world and perceptible reality, perhaps putting the question on the table: Who are we? There is much symbolism surrounding the work, and the apple as a recurring element for the artist, perhaps a self-portrait of the author's self-perception, in that effort to define himself as human and divine, a duality that does not have to be in confrontation. Perhaps everything is simply more straightforward and speaks about our inner self and how we show it to the world.

For the final result of my interpretation, I wanted to add an element that is recurrent for me, hence the wings, as a counterpart to the human, representing both freedom and the fragility of existence.

As always, I leave you a small animation with the creative process.
