MAY CONTEST: ISOLATION

[EliaMurrayArt]

The sun sank low on the horizon and the heat of the day began to ebb as the old man walked through the homes of the departed. Gulls screeched in the sky, crying out for the mans fish. He held the bucket tighter as his steps disappeared into the drifting sand.

lovely work everyone.

[Neha Rawat]

Such wonderful entries everyone!

[Elena Marengoni]

Here is my entry for this month's prompt (big thank you for the feedback I got along the way).
This page truly is a gallery of amazing illustrations! So much to learn from all of the different approaches!

[Heather Boyd]

@Neha-Rawat your lighting is really lovely, I just keep looking at it.

[Heather Boyd]

@Elena-Marengoni love the story, all my heart strings are pulled. Reminds me of a old doctor who episode too.

My character's idea of isolation is pretty much how I feel about it. Give me a book and a quiet spot in the woods and I'm happy. Honestly, even being home with my husband and my three school-aged kids is not bad either. Though that's more "cooped up" than "isolated."

[Elena Marengoni]

@Heather-Boyd you just mentioned my favorite TV series of all time in relation to an illustration I made, I feel honored!

[Laurel Aylesworth]

A little self-isolation happening here.

@Laurel-Aylesworth I really like this style. I love the texture and the soft line work. I really love the lighting too. Great job! I think your style is what I may be trending towards in digital painting.

[chrisaakins]

@deboraht THus us a really nice piece. I love the rendering and the lighting.

[Laurel Aylesworth]

@chrisaakins Thank you. I tried David Hohn's technique after watching his In the Studio demo: bringing in a traditional texture into Photoshop, adding layer masks and modifying them. I've been working on blending traditional with digital and his technique really resonating with me -- and it's a more efficient way of working than I had been in the past. Here's a link to his demo if you haven't watched it:

Hello friends!

This is my first time posting and my first time drawing a car! Woohoo!

I hope this whole quarantine business is treating you all well. It has sure shaken things up with my family and, in a way, it is extremely healing.

Stay safe, stay well!

Hi Guys!
Finally! I finished my illustration of isolation...even though this are difficult times, I think we can use this isolation to think, meditate, improve ourselves...be within us. BTW, I've seen amazing work so far and I'm excited to see the rest.
