Start of Digital Art: recently received a gift of Wacom (Intouos Art) tablet and pen using Corel Painter Essentials 5. I must add though, because I am using Mac Os 10.12 Sierra that there a ton of glitches and the techs from corel tell me its not compatible. So with that, Some tools work, many do not, including the eraser tool. So please accept I have some limitations here. I am searching for other art programs that do work with 10.12. but for now, its this. Its a new toy and I must do stuff with it.
Images: using the pen & ink tool. And not using from any image, this coming from my head, thats probably why the tree looks funny. And when I start on a blank canvas and decide to draw a person, I always start with hair. From there that tells me direction of where to put face or what direction, from person went from face, to body, then to dog since he looked to be looking down at something with expression of... something is there. From that the background, which I had no idea what to put so started with horizon lines of hills, then maybe a tree. Then decided to be a desert like background. First image no color, 2nd image color. thats where the water came first. But then I felt to add yellow on shirt and fill in with blue. Strange combo. I have a lot to work on, but glad this experiment to figuring out how to use the tablet & pen got me this far. 3rd image, I decided to really work with more color and make more stronger, and gives more detail, but continued using the fine line pencil tool in a constant sketch and change up colors. I do need to work on more reflective colors. But til then, this is what I got for now.
