Emily Jane Keene - Project 1

:: View Gallery ::

1.) This is my first time using CS5, so the most interesting part of using these particular features for me was finally getting to experiment with the mixer brush tool and all the new setting options :)

2.) The challenges I hit mostly involved the images I chose for this project– in retrospect, it probably would have been a better idea to shrink the file sizes a bit... plus all those tiny details got seriously tedious! Ultimately I'm pretty relieved to be on the writing side of comics, haha.

3.) Honestly, the way I'll use these tools in the future completely depends on what the future project calls for... I mostly use Photoshop to edit/create graphics for websites I'm designing (day job) and for certain stages of making these weird collage-and-verse art books I'm always working on in my "spare" time... so I guess I will just paint what needs painting in the manner that seems most efficient for the results I want? Ha, I dunno...

Oh, by the way– it seems this image lost some detail/saturation when I uploaded it to the blog, but the web gallery looks right, so click the link at the top if you'd like to check it out there :)
