Rocky Forest (painting process)
#64
Painting a rocky forest landscape, practicing foliage, check out the step by step process below.
I start with the darkest areas or contours to establish the base and then just fill in the shading. This way it's easier to quickly get the proportions and basic shading in. Painting is more about abstracting what you see and I found this to be the best method for me to see shapes and forms and indicate them easily.
The process with color is pretty much the same as for the value paintings, except there's also hue and saturation to worry about on top of value(brightness). I look for the darker silhouettes of color and indicate those first ... but try to group areas where I can, in order to avoid unnecessary detailing in the beginning. All those textures can be intimidating at first, but if you stick to the big shapes and forms, you'll learn to deal with it.
I like the painterly style, what do you guys think?
and thank you for your votes and resteems guys :)
