Digital background painting study from Princess Mononoke again (guess that’s the only movie I’m ever painting from; fine by me though!)

Another pastel painting study. This time I tried something new (for me) - doing an underpainting using Nupastels washed with alcohol (2nd pic). The rest show oil pastel process. Pretty cool effect and it’s nice to get the paper covered more thoroughly with the initial value setup! Am going to try this process again but with a watercolor underpainting to see how the results compare. (Thanks @salinatrevino for giving me this Pikachu wind chime; it’s nice to have cute things around to paint! haha)

Been trying to improve my color and value painting skills by doing little observational oil pastel studies lately. For some reason I feel like I understand it better when using traditional media instead of working digitally. Plus, always nice to have a little “assignment” I know I can get through quickly and get results!

Well, it’s been a while since my last selfie ✨ #illustration #portrait #paintingstudy #selfie #selfportrait #sketch #sketchbook #art #digitalpainting

New sketchbook joy! #gouache #landscape #paintingstudy

Quick 1 hour painting from reference I did last night. Different from what I usually draw and post, but I also love to paint environments every once in a while what is something you’d like to draw more often?
Drawn from a reference image from an awesome zoom webinar by @imageblockstudio and @digitalbobert from this weekend.

Took the kids to Jasper. One day I’ll have time to do plein air excursions to the Rockies, but for now painting my travel photos will do. #landscapepainting #landscape #jaspernationalpark #jnp #environment #paintingstudy
