This will be the background for a certain painting that I will upload in the future. Surprisingly I kept having trouble with something so simple. I kept painting and repainting both this background and the actual subject. All I’ll say is that I’ve come to really like the sponge brush.
I was just about to upload the final painting and completely forgot that I had yet to upload the background. Looking at it now, there are areas that I could work on the details but most of it will be covered anyway. Having said that, playing around with shapes and different planes/layers.
This will be the background for next weeks painting, the line art is already up so you can already guess who the subject is. I really wanted to play with the lighting.
This it the background for a line art I did back in October. I decided to try out a red sun this time. Might play around with the lighting a bit later, but who knows. I do wonder if this port city gets snow at all, seeing as it is called Warm.
It’s about to get even colder where I live so I wanted to paint something to reflect that. Looking at some references I remembered a painting I made back in 2021 that I wanted to eventually get back to and give it another try. So I decided to RE:do my Airi painting of her in a jacket. I also decided to try out a couple of new brushes aside from the sargent brush. I’m glad I did so because some of them fought me less when I was spreading paint and mixing. My plan is to continue practicing until I understand them better. This time around I was also more confident in giving her mitts a try.
I saw this beautiful photo of a lantern lighting up a tree and snow that I wanted to try and paint. Perhaps in the future I might use it as a background but who knows.
This will be the background for a future painting. There are certain details that I have yet to add. I also haven’t started painting the actual subjects but I do have a general idea of what I want. Hopefully it works out.
I want to paint some winter and seasonal art, but due to being a bit busy I was a bit flustered as to starting something new. Specially since I wanted to upload a background or rough draft today. That’s when I remembered that I had a couple of drawing that I made for Inktober that I could use. Looking at the selection I decided to use Rin’s drawing. For some reason it was a slow start but eventually got into the rhythm. I decided to look up Rin’s scooter and tent in the anime and noticed very apparent differences. this time I decided to correct them once and for all. There are still a few details that I haven’t done yet for the background, but the overall feel is there. This is what I will be working with.
Since we have entered December I will start working on some winter paintings. So I want to speed up the final Autumn painting this year. Here is the background.
