RE: Expectant

And onwards marches the progress of our art, eh? @castleberry and we all know it'll never be 'done' but we'll take 'stages of done'. In fact one of the joys of the digital age for me is that my work can have many 'done' phases and I love that. I often feel my art pieces are like my children and to see SO many possibilities from 'one child' is wonderful and sometimes it feels like the stages of their life. For example I've been adding color to my black and white illustrations of late and have been having a blast. They get to move onto the next 'phase' of their varied life, my "art children".

I'm really loving the color and the new figure coming into this piece. Well done on documenting on so many angles and stages, we could all learn from you on that one.

Just wonderful @castleberry

Thank you! Onwards and Upwards hopefully. I thought about doing many things to continue this artwork. I thought about adding things to the background. I considered putting ink on the top... adding metallic gel accents. I had many possible options forward... but thought in this case less may be more.

I still have yet to really dip my toes into the digital art realm. I just find the programs to be so cumbersome to learn. It's like i get the concepts but actually getting the user interface to behave.... that's another story.

I can utilize and manipulate the traditional tools to bend to my will and techniques... but that's not the case, yet, with the digital possibilities.
I have really enjoyed watching your digital growth in applying it to your traditional sensibilities. Keep up the great work and thanks for dropping by! =)
