Black Box Invention - It eats money

After hearing what my husband had to say and few other comments that I received, I realised that I had not expressed my thoughts adequately in the painting above. Not that I am any better with words but I would like to give it a try.
Background: Eleven years of work [...]

Toothy Smile

One more for the November Challenges thread at the Painters Alley, WetCanvas. This is one of the subforums under Digital Art and is for images painted using the techniques of a traditional painter without filters, effects, cloning, paint overs, or plugins. Images using those methods are posted in the regular digital [...]

David and Goliath

Both are from photo references. Both are WIPs. The first made with Art Rage and the second using Painter. My comfort level is plain to see. The first is a bit more finished as I was able to blend the layers with a brush [...]

A study for a painting? I think it’s just procrastination :D

The current tools of choice are the painting software that I have. These WIP images show the progress made on Uma’s digital portrait with Painter IX.5. I’ve downloaded their trial version. It has another 58 days left. Two months is a pretty decent trial period. But Painter [...]

Siridhara

I’ve been wanting to make a portrait of Sridhar for quite a while now. This is digital, made with Art Rage II from a photo reference. I do not use the tracing option though I’m taking a fancy to the undo and erase functions I think I must’ve spent about [...]

My father-in-law

A digital sketch of my father-in-law made to send to him on his birthday yesterday. Made with Art Rage II using a photo reference.
For this one, i took some of the colors from the original reference. I’m sure Photoshop and Painter have this option too but I wouldnt know where to find it! [...]

Another Modigliani copy

I have been trying to sketch but not as often as I would’ve liked and none that i intend to put up here. Used Art Rage 2 to make this one. It’s a copy of Modigliani’s Man with a pipe ( Notary of Nice ). I love the background in this one too. I found [...]

Drawing with a tablet

What I’m drawn to attempting are faces. Used a recent photograph that I’d taken of a friend and tried the tablet for this sketch. I’m finding it difficult to draw on the tablet and look at the screen. My hand-eye co-ordination needs improvement and I think doing blind contours is going to [...]

My Handy Live Model

He’s tired of only seeing drawings / painting of himself asleep but hasn’t the patience to sit still long enough for me to attempt one when he is awake and so i continue
I made the pen & ink first and then had a go with Art Rage when he was lying down and [...]
