Sketchbook Painting #5

This one I also used a whole bunch of brushes.

Here's the photo!

In the first 5 minutes I started with a quick B/W study

Then I decided to go right into the painting. I was trying to be as bold as possible and use as many brushes as I could.

Sketchbook Painting #4

This one I tried using different brushes every 5-7 minutes.

Here's the photo:

First I did a super quick B/W version like in the demo

Then tried doing what Owen did in class with a super quick color block in...

finally here's the final again

Sketchbook Painting #3

So I decided to try something different. In my last digital paintings I realized I spent a lot of time finding the right color/value in photoshop. I thought to choose my colors as if I were painting and mix them like it's a pallet. I think it helped because I was able to focus on painting more. I'm not totally sure if that's the right method... or even the fastest, but it's fun experimenting.

Here's the image:

Then I mixed a rough idea of the colors I would use: (and used that area to also test out brushes)

And here's my painting! I feel like I learned a lot from this one.

This is so fun!
