Tesla

Dedicated to one of the most important inventors and geniuses of 20th century, Nikola Tesla.
My idea was to create a simple illustration similar to old photos of Nikola next to the Tesla coil, but presented in a different, unique and funny way. Inspiration for the image came when I visited the computer museum in San Francisco. Over there I took couple of photos of old computers and when I got home I used that as a base for my sketch and developed an idea of a small guy standing on the control knob with electrical wires around him. Later, I decided as a model for small guy to take character of Nikola Tesla and that’s how the whole idea started
