Concept Art, Ant Island, A Bug's Life, 1998

This is a Concept art. It is dated 1998. Its medium is acrylic on board.

In developing the environment of Ant Island, it was crucial to visually convey a drought-like atmosphere to underscore the tension of the story. The dried riverbed is certainly one clue, but the use of muted color tones further emphasizes the dry conditions of the bug world.
