new colorworks: wreckage

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

I tend to work from light to dark as i work - i view areas as outlines and tend to apply color and shadow after the shapes are on the page. When looking at painting tutorials, i always note that artists often work from dark to light - creating areas of color and working back from that. That kind of this is not really possible when working with pencil (which is a thin, transparent media) but quite viable with computer art (as well as stuff like oils, etc). I did this sketch while sitting downstairs watching tv with Seraphim, having hooked my Intuos 3 up to my macbook to experiment. The subject of this painting is from a story idea i’ve been working on for several months that i’m not going to talk about yet :P
