Amanda's Sketchbook

Giving the wolf a miss for a bit because I painted myself into a corner and had a hard time doing shadows on his shirt. Meanwhile, here's something else that I had fun with this morning.
-
@Amanda-Jean Very cute one
-
@Amanda-Jean love how you did the colors on the coat and the water reflections. I love the colors you chose. I am a big fan of bright colors in art.
-
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen thank you! Me too
-
@Amanda-Jean I just had fun looking through your art. Great stuff! I think you have a nice sense for adding textures and details without ever overdoing it.
-
@Zachary-Drenski Thank you, that is very kind of you to say! I am experimenting a lot, it's heaps of fun!
And speaking of...
Something from tonight which ended totally not how it started (I don't remember how it started though).
-
Today's procreate noodling. Edit... changed my mind, took them out.
I am interested in recreating this as a traditional painting perhaps. Have a canvas that fits the dimensions.
-
Wow! I really love your style of illustration. That werewolf/dog man in a shirt piece is wonderful!
-
@lovetherobot thank you, this style is a recent development for me but I like where it's going. I still mean to finish that werewolf too!
-
Attempted this faux cut-out style piece. I started it in Procreate and then finished in Photoshop. Had some issues with the colours which I now think had something to do with the way I used texture this time, and it will be something to remain mindful of in the future if using this effect again.
Gosh it was fun though
-
@Amanda-Jean The faux cut-out style is so neat! Your work has such cool textures and the cut-out style adds an extra punch. There is so much dimension to the witch (as if she is actually popping off the page/screen).
I didn't notice anything "off" with the colors, but I'm still learning. Could you explain a little more what you mean? Do you not like the colors? Or is it just that you imaged the colors differently in you mind?
-
@Kayla-Groening thank you!
I didn't intend for it to be quite so dark. The values of the colours are more intense and it lost some of its vibrancy. I actually had to do some colour correction and add adjustment layers to lighten and saturate my overall colour.
Don't usually need to take that step.
-
@Amanda-Jean super cute!
-
It looks like you had a ton of fun! I think kids would enjoy it too.
-
Awesome work, thank you for sharing!

@Amanda-Jean hi! I love this mixed-media collage look that you’ve got going here. It’s beautiful. Great job. I especially love your witch.
