An Alaskan Duty

I wanted to paint something with cool colors, and dim Sun. That's all there is to it. I needed to create something from scratch versus just copying something directly. I learned a lot from this, customizing my brushes accordingly, and fine tuning how I set up photoshop to work with the Wacom most efficiently.

I mainly wanted to try a different approach to digital painting: I really enjoy looking at juicy pieces that have full confident colors, as opposed to very transparent layers piled on top of one another. Sitting down and closing my eyes, I tried to visualize how I would go about digital painting in the same manner as I would traditional painting. This is a step in the right direction.
