Create Art! Self Portrait

Once again, I used my digital painting method. It's like my favorite type of art and so here it is. I think it ended up quite nice.

Animal

So this is using a technique called Lino cuts. I'm not entirely sure how to do them but I think this ended up alright. The idea is to make a sort of stencil and ink it down.

Shield Art

I tried something new, using a combination of photography, blender, gimp, and illustrator to create this. And I think it looks pretty cool in the end.

Design art

So we have this little bottle thing from India or wherever that looks pretty neat, so I drew it. 

Bug art

So here's my bug. I don't know. I tried to get some type of bark texture but it doesn't look that great. Maybe I should just stop painting.. Haha.

Photo Painting finish

I'm not exactly sure if this looks good or not. It's kind of muddy but I tried to mimic that William Turner's style.  Soooo...yeah..

Photo Drawing start

So here's the start of it. Just the drawing with minimal paint so far.
And here's the link to the reference I'm using: http://zeldawiki.org/images/thumb/6/60/Bridge_of_Eldin.jpg/250px-Bridge_of_Eldin.jpg

Landscape

Just a simple landscape. It was fun to paint in the mountains, or try to.

Color wheel

Here's my color wheel. Not much to say, just splotches of color.

2 Color Abstract

So the colors I got are brown and yellow. So here we go. Just kinda made some swirly abstract things.  I'd forgotten how fun painting is, even though I suck at it.

Self portrait

I really like Avatar the Last Airbender so I created my portrait as me as a character from it. So yeah. Digitally painted.

Computer Abstract

So the thing with computer art: color is free. You don't have to do anything special to get more color, so it's a lot of fun to use. I don't really know what was going on here, just colorful life, then the black shape thing.

Clay man #2

ÏSo some little kids came playing downstairs and knocked him over and he fell all apart. So I put him back together but he is so delicate I was scared to try to work with him much further. So I smoothed out him and added a little bit, but it's not much different than the starting one.
