RE: Original Art - Learning to paint from "Inside your Head" - Painting from imagination, a Steemit Special
This is absolutely fascinating, and I Resteemed as well! I'm an artist as well as a writer, but nothing along these lines. I love how you've provided steps in your process. Awesome. My specialty is drawing/painting old buildings and houses in black and white - charcoal, pencil, ink, etc. My mathematical/architectural processes take over at that point - the creative ones come back after I've done all the angles and perspective, lol. I just love this!
I understand what you mean. Although I often work from photographs, converting to a canvas often demands changing the perspective. Particularly in a street scene where brush size might quickly distort expected detail. Part of my reluctance to paint a background to the Griffin was small canvas size requiring too much detail to make perspective work well.
