EARLY ACCESS // orange studies
🕑 Added 2022-10-26 14:40:00 +0000 UTCI need to get back into the flow of drawing after visiting lightbox earlier this month! I’ve been feeling drawn towards warmer color palettes and chunkier shapes. For these studies, I started with a bright orange base color and layered more muted tones on top of that. I always love the effect that gives, as if the warmer color is shining through the character! It’s a technique I also love to use when I’m painting with acrylics. It’s a lot of fun to do if you haven’t tried it yet!

I would like to have some more, but I am wagering you are drowning in work these days. If you end up making another similar one in analog space I am all over buying it if it is for sale :D

yesss i used the same technique with the acrylic portrait here! thanks once again for purchasing my work, really appreciate it :)

that could definitely yield some interesting results with gouache, since the paint tends to re-blend a little with every new layer!

I really love the idea of starting with a neon palette and working over top of it, how coooool! It reminds me a bit of a technique i've seen used in oil painting

Whoa these are so cool! or maybe I should say warm? LOL. The electric hues really add an interesting pop of color to the characters! I'll have to give that technique a try sometime with digital and gouache!

looks great - and thanks for including the preliminaries, they make the process much clearer.

I really love these chunkier shapes. I have such a hard time letting myself do that, the urge to smooth it all out is ridiculous LOL
