BlogChaos Monkey, take two.
December 18, 2008
I've been looking at some of the sketch art of Joao Paulo Alvares Ruas and James Jean and I enjoy how they take a sketch further with a little bit of mixed media. In this case, I grayed down some ultramarine gouache, added some touches of green and the slightest bit of red, then laid down a wash. On top of that, I used some white gouache for highlights, added some red and blue in places for a little more color and middle tone. Then used gray paint to wash in the column of smoke in the background. Maybe it's a tornado. I haven't decided yet....
Now that I've had a week or so with this thing up on the wall, I've decided I'll need to go back in with a pencil and put in those darks again to give it more punch. Only when I'm sure of my values will I go in and add more color and details. There are 0 Comments for Chaos Monkey, take two.Add A Comment |
