Summer Challenge - Week 2

Okay so there were some hits and misses this week. Probably the most notable thing is no skeletons. I honestly think I burned myself out that first week. But on a happier note, I've discovered some things about painting in Photoshop with some custom brushes that I've made to try and mimic traditional media. I know there are other programs like Painter and ArtRage that are better for that kind of thing, but Photoshop is just much faster for me, and I already know it pretty well. I think it'll be obvious where the jump in painting occurred. I also managed to accidentally make a brush that mimics ink when used in the right way. :D

I've also discovered another artist named Simon Goinard. His work really caught my eye and got me interested in trying to mimic the brush strokes in Photoshop. I suspect next week I'm going to be experimenting even more and painting more.

Meanwhile at TAD.....

So I'm almost here at the halfway point at TAD (The Art Department), and I've got some work I'd like to show off. So far my experience has been really great. The teachers are very informative and pour the knowledge all over you. There shall be more to come!
