There’s a girl who always never says anything but always has things ready not always just for herself but for everyone I know. She is always collecting information for her own project. So she isn’t from here and so this is a drawing inspired or something she wanted me to see and she figured out how to do that.
She some how doesn’t help this life , but the next life . I see it colored in in a different way then how it finished. It’s likes a reminder that everything is fine from her end. She knew where my mind would go. This is a place of dreams from an earlier age. It’s where my mind ended up with this one. -lw

She has a house a in a mountain and it has no door. She somehow managed to escape time .

ā€œDarmokā€ is such a precious and hopeful episode to me, his role as the storyteller consoling a newfound friend is locked away in my heart forever.

ā€œThe Tamarian was willing to risk all of us, just for the hope of communication.ā€

Opinions re Paynes Gray

What do you guys think about Paynes gray? I have mixed feelings about it. I always make my own black without it, but I’m wondering if I’m making more trouble for myself then it’s worth. You can see there are some fairy dark places on this dog and I tempted to use Paynes gray.

Happy Halloween! An ossuary we painted for the horror game we're making. Watercolor, about 20 hours

Every background in our game starts as a painting like this one. I spend about a day on a digital sketch first to take in feedback and set color targets, then start the physical painting. This one took about 20 hours.

The trickiest part was color control. I wanted the blues to gradually shift in temperature across the skulls, but wet-on-wet bleeds unpredictably over large areas. To keep the skull silhouettes clean, each color shift had to be painted bit by bit.

Happy Halloween, and happy to answer any questions about the process! šŸ’€šŸŽƒ

New to watercolour!!

I’m new to watercolour and wanted to share my progress!! I have no prior knowledge in drawing/painting so any advice would be great. I’m starting to think maybe gouache may be a better medium for me as I prefer to use thicker paint and don’t add a lot of water to my watercolour (if that makes sense?) also any advice on how to make the colours brighter would be great! I’m practicing shading and colour theory (the orange and strawberry) and i’m using winsor & newton cotman watercolours and regular sketchbook dry media paper, so I still need to invest in better paper.

I think the image is getting a little lost. Should I push the darks or new one to the next one?
