Painting people is challenging - but awesome! There are so many layers of complexity, so many different things to calculate and balance and the margin for error is small because your audience will easily spot even minor mistakes.
BUT, with great challenge comes great reward. When this works, it's amazing. With the right techniques, you can create character paintings that leave a lasting impression.
In this video, I'll take you through my process of using visual storytelling to paint compelling characters. You'll see a character painting come to life from a blank canvas, while I discuss the techniques, styles, and philosophy that can elevate your people painting skills.
Join me for a half hour of learning and inspiration, and discover how to unlock the full potential of your digital painting.
