It's easy to paint something like you have done before, so once in a while I step out of my comfort box. In this case it's a landscape but it's a busy landscape. Lots going on and hard to do.
So it's back to basics. Photo : check, drawing : check, Paint : check.... and it kinda works out. Yeah it's more or less the same style but looks alright (at least me wife likes it).
I remembered to take a couple of photos while I was working on it. This photo shows my setup and process with my iPad and drawing from a photo. Not working on an easel, just on my desk.
One last thing. I have a number of frames squired away for my work as framing a piece can really make a huge difference in how it looks. I also have a mat cutter and some extra mat board so fitting my work to a frame is not too hard.
Anyway, enjoy.
