Type Tutorial

The type tutorial was interesting, but rather difficult for me. We learned how to wrap text around a certain object in photoshop, as well as warping the text -although I was able to complete it, it wasn't without difficulty. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with it.

Dabbling with Water-Colors

I played around a little bit with the water-color tools in Painter 12, and ended up with a few Homestuck characters.

This was kind of a bonus thing, because I don't think it was actually an assignment? But I really liked using the watercolor technique, and I love how it turned out -again, Painter 12 is really fun to work with. I don't think I actually had that many difficulties with it, overall. 

Portraits!

Here is the Benedict portrait that I did based off of a picture -I can't decide which version I prefer, so they're both here.

 Here is a pop-art-esque portrait based off a picture of Asa Butterfield.

Both were done in Painter 12. I really, really like how they both turned out -at first, I was very skeptical  of how well I would do on this project. Provided with a source image, though, I had a field day with it and really enjoyed creating these. I liked using Painter 12, because it had creative brushes and was overall pleasant to work with. This style of art consists of a lot of layering and patterns which work together to create an organized madness.
