Here’s a quick sketch I painted today. I used about one hour on this and I was actually about to continue rendering this, until I realized that I’d like to, for once, leave a painting at this stage, and not to ruin it with trying too hard.
As usual, I painted this in Photoshop with my Wacom Intuos 4.
I love the famous and much used sketchy painting style with rough brush strokes with high opacity. It’s very popular among the digital painting scene. I am not unfortunately very good at this because I often use soft basic Photoshop brushes with no textures and I tend to smoothen out the edges between strokes. I was tempted to do so this time also, but managed to resist. I guess it’s a skill, in a way, to be able to leave a painting unfinished and move into a new one.
