Watch my illustration take shape from sketch to finish! More of my digital painting time-lapse videos that can be found on my Youtube channel.
New waterproof vinyl stickers for my Shrumans are available on my Etsy Store! These bad boys can withstand the elements and will stick to your thermos, lunchpail, forehead, and more!
Here to spread some Christmas cheer is my Poinsettia elf. She was drawn and painted in Photoshop using the basic round brush and my favorite Gouache brush from a Kyle Webster brush pack.
Some of the notable tools used:
Symmetry Tool: Used to establish the face drawing and initial passes of painting
Liquify Tool: Great for adjusting proportions of the figure and making the edges of the leaves more wavy
Smudge tool: Sometimes used to blur edges, but also to push things a bit, like the liquify tool
Adjustment Layer: Gradient Map: Used to establish base layer for color
Mixer Brush: Used to blend harsh brush strokes
