It has been awhile since I posted a video (First one this year… yikes!). This a small character sketch of Mr. Tumnus from “The Chronicles of Narnia” that I made as a study for one of my paintings. I played a lot with different brushes and textures. Made in Adobe Photoshop.

Monster Portrait

This was a little Photoshop painting experiment where I tried to use as many layer tricks as possible. In the split-screen view, you will see my painting on one side and a close-up of the Layers palette in the other. See if you can spot all of the effects/tools/shortcuts that I use.

This is a small line and color job done on the computer. I first created my drawing using Adobe Illustrator, then copied it into Photoshop to put some basic paint onto it.
