Illustration Media: Final Project

This is the final project that I will be submitting for my art class tomorrow! I'm so incredibly happy with how it turned out. I worked completely without outlines for the VERY FIRST TIME and free-handed the entire thing. I got to try some new things with my brushes and learned more about digital art just in general

For those who don't know, this is a digital rendering of the very first project I had in my art class this semester. The basic idea was to take a picture out on campus, edit it to grayscale and a 4x4inch size, and then do a pencil drawing and a charcoal drawing of it. The main goal was to capture the contrast and introduce shading before adding color.

So anyways, we were allowed to pick any of our previous illustrations to do a digital version of and I chose this. The original gave me such a hard time and so much stress so it was fun to revisit it after learning so much and feeling so much better about my artwork over the past 3 months.

I'm really sad that my class is ending but I'll forever be thankful that I was able to take it. I learned sooo much and I feel it helped me improve in big ways!

Enjoy~!!
