I am a consulting geologist from Australia. There is a piece of artwork that I found a piece of artwork on Google images (see file attached - 'earth layers artwork') which I would like to use as an example of an image I require for my own branding. The image is a model of the earth with an exploded 'onion skin' effect showing the layers of the earth. I would like same image but drawn for me so i can copyright it. The image itself is quite common and found in many textbooks but I want one that I can use for myself. I want the same image with a black background and Australia shown on the earth instead of north america (see file attached as an example - 'earth-australia'). It could be a satellite image or a sketch i don't mind - whatever looks best. What I like about the 'earth layers image' is that the layers slot into each other like a russian doll and that it looks hot in the middle and getting cooler towards the outside (see the streaks going from inside to out. Also the texture of the layers also gives weight to the image which is what i want also. I summary I want pretty much the the same image as the 'earth layers artwork' jpg but my own version so i can use it without feeling i am ripping off someone else's artwork.
I will want to use the image for a website banner, youtube banner, facebook cover image, and the back of my business card etc. Eventually I will want to commission a stylized version as a logo / favicon ect.
If you have questions please get in touch via email at jamesamlawrence@gmail.com
Once I have this artwork done i will commission more branding i.e. logo, business card etc etc
