art illustration artists on tumblr ocean marine waves environments id in alt text i was playing around lots with ocean stuff for a couple weeks in January i lost all my old brush settings and ive been feeling not great abt the replacements i made so i made myself try some new tools/workflow and ended up making a low-texture painting brushset which i quite liked! low quality images bc too lazy to post from pc

Digital painting study of a photograph of a Japanese Storefront by Lee Chapman. The storefront is painted in warm, washed out colours and loose brushwork. Text on the sign over the shop window has been replaced with simple, meaningless symbols and shapes.

art illustration artists on tumblr sketchbook environment art really wanna get better at painting so this was a one-brush painting exercise i really liked the way i stylised these with the tool i picked! i tried hard to stick to my guns and keep in a limited colour gamut instead of picking from the reference and i think it helped to keep the painting cohesive overall!

A page of digital sketches of dogs, stylised as colourised pencil drawings on textured paper. There are two dogs with distinctive markings, sketched in multiple poses throughout the page. In some, the dogs chase eachother or play together, in other sketches they are pictured individually. They are drawn loosely and all the dogs appear to be in motion. The image is signed TORQUATIVE.tumblr
