I wanted some exercise on line strokes and weights so I decided to adapt a new art style. By art style, it's not really that far from what I've been doing from my previous works but there are subtle

I don't really think of titles while I'm working and the naming sense if probably the most underutilized creative muscle I got. And I have a lot. For this piece, I embedded the link to the youtube video

I was playing with texture brushes, blending modes, values and lighting. The usual basic stuff for painting. I'm in my "discovery art phase" where getting a feel for creativity takes form and

Practicing my values and lighting. I'm not really into using colors beyond black/white/gray because I prefer monotone styles but I will confront the demon of called coloring some other time. Below is just

I've been looking into surrealism paintings because these are close to what I used to doodle. Don't ask me to explain the work as I don't even know how or forget right after I made it. No process shots

I mixed up elements of manhwa coloring with manga. It's still a sloppy work and I could see the errors post finish but then I remember it's just an exercise. I do these pieces to gauge how I improved and

Added an extra 2 hours on it and most of it is just adding and erasing. I deleted the first 2 layers as these were only line art and practice lighting. I'll be doing the coloring on another layer next

It started out as a practice doodle with a concept of a crab and I just ended up scribbling lines as I go along the process. I don't have an end image in mind. I may just abandon this WIP like a lot of

I finished the piece with trying to imagine an evil queen to the fairy tale in my head fiction. It still needs more but the objective was really just practicing how to work with layers, coloring and blending

I'm just practicing layer management along with continuing some basics in composition. It's not really that visible on the current works since the practice is within work flow rather than what is the visible
