Another great and interesting Crypto Art Challenge on the way - this time with the Cardano logo. I noticed a change in the rules so I had to choose between hundreds of different and unique artists.
Hm, tough job. I was kind of having an idea about sculptors and marble pieces in my mind. Luckily my friends helped me decide - special thanks to @svdsdragunov and Xmantra (not sure if he has a Steemit account)! .
So this entry is inspired by the incredible art of Gian Lorenzo Bernini.

Some pictures I used, specially for the marble effect:

This time decided to start with the background, because it was easier than the other elements. ^^'
I made it a bit darker to contrast the Cardano logo.

Time for the logo - gave it a bit of a stone look with couple of Effects using Photoshop: Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Bevel and Emboss and Gradient Overlay.

Looking at the bust of Louis XIV I noticed my sculpture needs a base.
Ok, done. :D Made with three vector shapes with the same effects as the Cardano logo.

Next step (and probably the most time-consuming) was to make the fabric that embraces the logo.
First the left side.

And then the right. I also added some light from the top.

And finally using the same marble pattern but in different Layer Mode (Color Burn) I wanted to give a little color to the background.
