Long overdue posting time! Here's a few steps in the creation of a recently completed commission of Dream... Pencils, inks, color rough in photoshop and completed watercolor. I'll be honest, I'm still kind of partial to the rough I did digitally. Was fairly happy with the natural media look that I was able to get with some of the new brushes I've been trying out, and I didn't have to breathe any fumes while sealing it like with the finished painting. What do others think?

Hi, Richard.
I thank the digi-work seems a bit more on the morbid side, but honestly I had to zoom in to tell which was the water colour version.
Each is adequate, though it is amazing how much impact colour can have over mood.
As olde-fashioned as I generally prefer, I like the photoshop better.
Great stuff.
Hi! I'd have to agree that the didgital version is my favorite, as well. There is something about the swirl of specs that creates a nice movement for the eye.
I just found your blog and love your drawing!
I've been drawing a lot with the wacom tablet and find myself pleasantly surprised by the line quality it can achieve. I think I'm in denial about the power of creating art digitally because I love looking at originals on a tactile surface. But for professional purposes, the editing ability of the computer is so superlative!
Great stuff! Glad to have found it!
