And sadly, this won't be the most exciting post because I'm only posting one final - my photoshop final. Unfortunately you'll have to wait to see anything from the sketchbook as it had to be left in Monterey to be graded over the winter break and I didn't get a chance to scan anything from it before turning it in. And I won't be posting my scratchboard final for a similar reason. It had to stay in Monterey as well, and though I did a pre-scan of it, it still needs some work before I can reveal the final.
Hopefully the Photoshop final makes up for the other losses...
The above is a combination of graphite, Photoshop, and Illustrator. All the color on the branch was painted in Photoshop. The branch itself was drawn in graphite and then scanned in. I love maps, so I created one in illustrator borrowing the distribution data from another map. I'm happy with the way it turned out.
I'm also happy to be home in Long Beach. Only 3 more weeks though and then I'll be back up in Monterey until June (with a break for Spring Break of course). :)
