Challenge #140
The Colours of Fruit
Our challenge theme 'The Colours of Fruit' has been chosen by Jennie.
I was wondering what to do for this card and then at some stupid time in the morning the light in my head switched on ROFL. Needing some chair time while my body woke up I set to colouring the Candle Poe image digitally. Normally I just use a regular paint brush for colouring but this time I tried the charcoal brush and just used black paint with varying densities of opaqueness. I did switch back to a regular paint brush for the skin and candle as I wanted those bits smooth and added colour for the candle stick and candle. I saved the image as a transparent .png and then finished off the card design in Illustrator where I added the colour backgrounds behind each Poe image giving the overall effect of an Andy Warhol look. I just love how this creation has turned out, so different from my usual and great fun to do too :)
Brilliant, well done. No more words. Hazel x
