Implanted or being as if implanted by nature : seemingly inborn
Natural, definition by merriam-webster.com
The potter and her clay
This is my entry to Jenny's Art Contest, Week 13 with the theme Natural.
I was planning to draw something outdoors- or fruit/veggie-related but the thought suddenly occurred to me. Natural is a very broad term.
I think this is more fitting to the theme because all of us are participating doing what is natural to us; the talents we were born with and made better and better with practice.
The idea of drawing a potter was a sudden brain wave; no particular story. :)
Process:
Made with ArtRage Lite tools:
- Paint Roller
- Ink Pen
- Watercolor Brush
- Air Brush
I. Covered background with grey paint roller and outlined subject with ink pen in black
II. Filled in basic colors with watercolor brush
III. More filling and added mug and bowl so it's clear she's making pottery, haha
IV. Adding detail (face, hands, hair strands, etc) with ink pen
V. Used airbrush to add shadows to skin.. then later erased as not liking the effect
VI. Added more detail (smudge to the face) with watercolor brush for shadows, and ink pen for finer detail
VII. Added background stuff like blue prints of mug designs with ink pen; added light source using air brush
VIII. Making light source stronger by using darker yellow, still using air brush
IX. Looking complete but needing some more...
X. ...shadows which are added to the pants, lower part of tank top and materials on her side shelf
All done! Had a snack after... :)
That's it and thanks for taking a peek at this post!
See you soon
