I’ve spent the last month venturing in to new ideas for my digital art, but I haven’t forgotten my roots – fruit.
Problem is I was getting bored of strawberries 🍓😆. So I had a look online for some new fruit splash inspiration.
I came across a shiny image of a beautiful blackberry 🍇 surrounded by juice. I loved it, so while it’s not a huge leap in to the unknown, I felt more comfortable going back to drawing fruit again.
I already have plans for my next pictures. My partner created some amazing inspiration on his visit to the coast recently as well as a new idea I had to draw a puddle in a forest reflecting trees.
I’ve started both but there’s still a bit of work to do. The puddle specifically has been a real challenge. Making the reflection believable and keeping the items reflected clear has been a real learning curve.
I’ve started using new colours and palettes for both of these projects. The sunset effect over the beach uses blues, yellows and oranges, which seem to have a real calming effect. The puddle has a wide range of muddy browns and orange.
So there will be some different art coming soon!
Thank you to graphicriver.net for the image inspiration for the blackberry. It’s clear that my image is an altered version of one of their vector images, so I wanted to make sure they are credited.
Let me know what you think!
