I painted something different today since I haven't been really too happy with my ideas lately. I was listening to this playlist so I was inspired to mix romanticism and surrealism in this painting. I'm super happy I went with this direction since it's so different from what I'm used to painting which is quite refreshing!
Also, it's been a while since I painted a muted palette but I never realized how much I love it! So I will be exploring more palettes and paintings like this! I also made sure to paint strictly on Procreate today so I can record the whole timelapse! I attached the timelapse video! πAlthough I did make colour adjustments in Photoshop (as always!) haha I think the grainy texture on my iPad protector makes my paintings seem darker so I always have to make adjustments with Photoshop, which I personally don't mind since I always make adjustments regardless of the program!
Thank you so much for your support!! It really means a lot to me! π

Hi Jean! I was using my custom brushes to paint this piece (mostly graphite, silky bristle, sea and fog, and cloud) I also used Bonobo chalk (Procreated default brush) and used the smudge tool to blend some of the areas!

Beautiful as always! Love how the colors blend so seamlessly! What brushes did you use for this? :)

STUNNING π€© I love all your ideas theyβre so unique and different. I love when your designs focus on a bigger image of the mermaid. Her details are lovely and dreamy.
