Solitude I Digital Portrait Demonstration

1 DVD – 1.5 Hours of Video

In this video, you will see how you can achieve the look of traditional Pastel painting using Corel Painter program. My approach of painting digitally is similar to how I paint traditionally. I apply all my knowledge as a traditional artist to my digital art as well.

In this portrait demonstration, I’ll show you how I painted Solitude I from start to finish.  I also explained how I used each particular brush to achieve the look I desired.

Since Painter replicates all conventional mediums, it allows me to paint digitally with a similar approach, building my portraits by applying paint over paint, without the use of any filter, cloning, or any automated action.  No Undo is used either since I believe that when you fix your mistakes by applying paint over paint, it will add to the richness of your painting.
