Digital Art: A Tangible Christmas

It has been awhile since I updated here. But I just want to show my latest art project. A Tangible Christmas. An update.

Busy with new art

It has been awhile that I did some digital painting again. That is because of many things, my parents were on holdiay for three months and I was sick for most of the time or I didn't feel like painting. But now I feel it tingling again in my fingers. So here is my almost finished peace of " The moon and the hare"

Night On The Milky Way Train

This is a very inspiring story. A must to read. You can read the story further on: Night On the Milky Way Train

Then Giovanni saw the weather station pillar right behind him take on the vague shape of a triangular sign, flickering on and off like a firefly. When the blur in his eyes cleared, everything became clear and finely outlined, and the sign with its light soared straight up into the dense cobalt-blue field of the sky as if it were a sheet of freshly tempered steel. Out of the blue he was sure he heard a strange voice calling...

CRaZy!!!!

My most favorite time of the year is Christmas and winter. I love snow, unfortunaly I live now in South-Africa were you don't have snow. In the four years I have been here it snowed 1 day and in the afternoon the snow was gone. So when I was still in living in Belgium I loved the day when it snowed. In the summertime I began painting my Christmas cards. Every card was different. And then in november everybody, my family, friends and so on bought my Christmas cards. This is my passion. Here an example of a Christmas card I made. But I recently revised it and made it better in Photoshop.

Digital Matting: Planet of the Bears

Steps I took to complete Planet of the Bears: Used my sketch to construct my artwork with pictures and scanned sketches. Every element you see is on a different layer: planet, bears, background, stars and so on. If everything is in place: filter, artistic, dry brush. I used brushes to blend in the pictures so that it becomes one artwork instead of a collection of pictures. The planet in the background. I made two layers with different colors. Flipped them in mirror. Used the eraser to blend in the two layers. Then added the clouds and the lights. Made another layer for the reflection into the water. Took several star pictures and put them together and used the eraser to blend them. The sunrise, I changed the orange into red, copied the lights in a different layer. Mirrored the layer and used it for the reflection in the water. With the cloning tool a made the fur of the bears. Changed there colors and detailed it with a fine brush. Also used smudging tool. Then a separate layer of both bears to use as a reflection into the swimming pool water.The swimming pool I changed the color and the light and also the foam. Again I used the eraser to let through a glimpse of the water.The last layer I added was the champagne glass and the champagne bottle.

Snowstorm in London

I had this image for years in my head. But I never translated that in a painting। Now that I have a drawing tablet it made me easier to make the idea into a painting. London is my favorite town and I have been there twice. Once with school and once with my parents just before Christmas.

I searched some references of the Big Ben and a bobby and created from there "Snowstorm in London". This is really an atmospherical painting and one of my favorites. I like the color blue and I really love snow, especially a snowstorm.
