This time around, there were so many things I wanted to attach as a caption or a description to this painting, in line with how I was feeling at the moment as well as the events this past few days. But I settled with the decision to let the painting speak louder than my words…
Apologies for ghosting again, a lot of things tend to come in between me and what I really love to do. This is my first digital painting in a while, especially since I began creating more paintings traditionally. I still intend to continue with the Inktober, even if it has to go beyond this month. I really want to create with all the prompts. I hope you would still stick around : )
PROCESS
I created this using Procreate!
As always I started with my sketch , I didn’t want to take on something complex since it’s been a while since I’d done a painting digitally. Guess what, my painting hair has improved lol, I guess it’s thanks to all the hair I’ve been painting this past month!
I went on to select my colors before moving in to the painting proper
While painting, I made sure to keep checking the painting in black and white to make sure the values were correct, and this really helped.
CLOSE UPS!
Thank You For Viewing!
