Nature Painting & Dokomi Announcement
🕑 Added 2022-05-31 09:36:09 +0000 UTCHello friends!
This month has been all about experimentation for me. For a long time I've made it my mission to achieve a traditional look in digital media and I feel like I'm closer than ever. BUT the switch to watercolour or gouache seems inevitable at some point. I just love these textures and I'd love to achieve them with real paint! Working traditionally is scary, because you can't easily fix and change things, but maybe a challenge like that is exactly what I need to shake things up.
Anyway, I'm really happy with this little painting, and I'm just trying to lean into things that I love: Painting foliage and rocks and getting lost in the little details.

I'll also be at Dokomi in Düsseldorf this weekend. You can find me at booth C46 (next to the 18+ area). Say hello if you happen to be there!

It always looks super fun when I see other artists do it. :D

I’m just starting to explore gouache myself so I can’t wait to hear about your journey with it! Also I highly recommend trying painting with ink. I feel like it would be a fun exercise for you while you explore traditional materials. Creating cats (or other furry creatures) with a wet on wet technique is so fun, even if you never show anyone. Ink flows in a way nothing else I’ve tried does.
