my in-progress background |
creating backgrounds is one of my favorite things to do. it's definitely the phase of my painting process where i just play and get everything out. it's also a time when i experiment with new colors, textures and layers to see just what i like...then i can repeat the discoveries i most love later on in the painting, once my character is in place.
i'm always so inspired by all of the backgrounds created in my HOW TO PAINT AN OWL e-course too! i love it that students use techniques and color combinations i've never even thought about before. we're in the middle of the latest session of HTPAO and here are a few backgrounds from our gallery...
