Wonderful day! Over the years, I've experimented with a variety of artistic techniques, such as graphite, watercolor, and acrylic color. Over the past year, this medium has become my comfort zone. But my interest in digital art has grown over the past few months. I am a student of architecture, so I am not new to digital production as I have been using software to make 3D models and other things for a while. Digital art, however, is unique in certain ways. Since I haven't decided what I want to do with digital art, it has been about a year since I purchased my first pentablet. I've made a lot of early attempts, but I lack the bravery to complete every new artistic endeavor because I keep getting unsatisfactory outcomes.
And yes the initial attempts were a flop. The hardest part of my first try at digital art was that I'm still learning and this style of work is somewhat unusual for a traditional artist like me. Just as with my previous piece of digital art, I almost gave up before I even tried to finish this one. I'm pleased I used every last bit of patience I had to get this piece finished. And as a result of all of my "first attempts," I am now delighted to share this artwork.
I've captured some progress of this piece:
The software I used is Adobe Photoshop using my pentablet. I admit that the color grading still need an enhancement but as I said earlier I am still learning and hoping to share to you guys more of my improvements.
As my favorite quote says:
The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
-B. B. King
Learning should be a precious development for us. In my situation, I've been somewhat hard on myself despite being a beginner. The most important thing I can impart to you guys is that learning is an integral part of who we are and that we must accept every stage of what are we becoming while learning.
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day ahead.
