¡Sin Suerte!

Photoshop and pencil. I read Hemingway's Death in the Afternoon every spring, and as a result I end up putting banderillas in my backs of whatever I'm drawing.    I included some pictures of my process for this one. My main concern was to maintain the feel of my initial line work.  I'm trying to develop a quick digital process where I add color at the end after most of the values and the focal point are established in grayscale. Enjoy.

Digital and some traditional pieces.

I've been neglecting this blog, for some reason my Tumblr seems easier to update.  But that's an excuse isn't it?   Here's a big update to bring this thing up to date.  I've been experimenting with different digital techniques lately.  It's fun but I miss painting.  I'm been trying to create a digital look that has some energy in the final product.  A lot of digital pieces (including some pieces below) are too polished for me. I'm still messing with it, I hope my attempts might help you on your artistic journey. Enjoy!
