"How do I know when my work is finished?" CHECKLIST

Hey, heathens!

A question my students often ask:
"How do I know when my work is finished?"

Well, I made a checklist!

My classes on Youtube

Hey folks!

Just a quick post here to let you know that I have decided to post some of my recorded classes on Youtube.
So you can all have full access to it for now.

They go from the very basics to more in-depth conversations about technicalities and philosophy about being an artist today.

Right now, it is only livestreams, but soon I will focus on recording videos with a bit more structure. I just did not find the time yet.

Cheers!

When my students paint a flat white eye ...

This is a topic that always comes during the first level of my Digital Painting class.
Students often make the mistake of painting an eye as a flat white surface.
Remember that understanding your subject is the key to paint it accurately.
An eye is a sphere, full of blood vessels and covered by skin that curves around it.


- Find the right references (as I did for this one)

- Pick the right brushes

- Use the software efficiently (a simple round selection with the additional layers clipped to the initial one, to make sure that the paint remains inside the eye).


This one was done very quickly (10mn) and when I look at it, I easily see myself spending a full day on it. But ... nope, the point is made!

Cheers!
B.


Bonus:
A bunch of eyes rolling down the stairs (yay!)
