4 Studies Digital Painting Time Lapse Compilation | With Annotations

Some community art studies I have done this year, using photo references (linked below). I find these enormously helpful as quick exercises in honing and developing my process, but the time lapse footage for each one is often a little too short for its own video - so you get a bumper edition of four paintings today!
The artist who runs these community studies is the lovely Maddy Bellwoar - do check her out! / maddybellwoar

Great photo-reference work! I love that you paint the out of focus parts fuzzy, rather than using the blur tool or something.

Thanks! It's a fairly recent development in my process - I used to use blur filters, but then tried painting the "blur" in by hand one day, and something about it just clicked with me.

This is very good! I like this format :)

Yay, thank you!
