texture

Practicing textured backgrounds on wood. Mixed media is MUCH harder than watercolor.

Zahra Sedighi-Hamedani sits in prison in Iran, sentenced to death for being a lesbian. Digitally painted with pencil brushes and textured overlays to produce a watercolor-type image. Shading tones and background are meant to represent the Kurdish flag.

Pencil Sketch . I had fun drawing his facial texture and lines. Still, I'd be hesitant to meet him.

Textured abstract neon design.

Explored texture for shading in this line art. It gives an interesting look. I like my meteor bonking the moon.

My first venture into artist grade colouring pencils - and I'm smitten! I never thought I could achieve such boldness and blendability with them! I'm still getting used to them and will think about choosing smoother paper with less tooth next time. The texture and weight was more for the water-based gouache along with alcohol inks (which are very unforgiving to even primed heavy paper!). Apologies for the unevenness of lighting between the 2 sides of paper; will correct that when I'm making proper image files.

Tiger painting printed on textured paper :)

I am so in love with Procreate. I love the smooth blending, the textures and how easy it is to work with. This fox is available on my INPRNT store.
