the unintended holiday break finally allowed me to make something of my own.
due to my increasing interest in digital matte paintings, decided to put a little scenery together.
the most challenging part of this was to let my hand lose and allow myself to make mistakes.
for a while i struggled to draw straight lines in photoshop but eventually i forced myself to just enjoy making the picture. that's when i felt things come together.
a little step but it's okay for fact i rarely do this kind of things and am rather submerged in the 3d world most of the time.
i meant to depict something post apocalyptic. and of course with a subtle guilty conscious since hurricane sandy left significant damage to our friends and co-workers homes.
now it looks rather like shanty town.
i hope to continue the momentum and produce more digital paintings like this down the line.
hopefully without being tied down by hurricane next time.
