Hello Steemerz!
Hope you are doing fine today? :)
Here I'd like to share one of my most recent paintings 'The Cultist' that I painted after a painting I did about 3 years ago..
I wanted to see how I would paint it now and the difference is quite significant :)
I find myself more and more trying to go and take a 'painterly' route to these kind of images instead of a more illustrative way.
I used to do a clean line drawing that was then a guide for me to go and make the image. Now I try more to just use it as a sketch.. an idea what is still very much open to change throughout the process of creating the image.
The painting I did in 2013 ! ... I had probably painted this in 1 day maybe more..
The painting this week in 2017:
(please do click it to see in full-size.)
It is a completely different style which I think is for the better ;)
I made a quick tutorial/process video on how I painted this image. You can check that out here:
Please let me know what you think!
Thank you!
Cheers
