Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Other

An entry for the VCDC Worm II, a project/game where people create images that follow each other in an a seamless row; a sort of linear mosaic. You can see it here: [link] -- and the (longer and also very impressive) Worm I here: [link]

I wanted to make something that could stand alone as a composition and at the same time have a visual continuity with the previous (and next) images. It was an enjoyable process. I also used some photographic elements in making it; the base of the spiral (before it was painted over), the upper wall texture, and the splashing liquid at the bottom (again, both painted over in parts). It's been a long time since I last did that and it reminded me of my old photomanipulating days... perhaps I'll be able to incorporate this technique in future works again.

Photoshop, Painter.

I know, you'll say it's small. It is! This is its actual size, because I started with the same dimensions as the other images. Shame, eh? :}

Dear 'eilidh: Thanks for the wonderfully
written comment. As I browsed your folder,
Impetus really grabbed me wholly. I am sooo
jealous of digital artists on this site - they
just blow me away! I've tried PShop as a
painting program, and just stumble around.
Nice going - hey we're using the same OS!!!
But mine really needs major upgrades. This
summer maybe. Great work...!!!!

You're welcome, and thanks too! I suppose it might be something to note that I (and a lot of other all-digital artists) are really jealous of artists who work with traditional media.

I think it's a certain level of mastery above digital, because most traditional media (and watercolour especially) are much less forgiving to mistakes. In PS and Painter and the rest, you can mess around all you like, and go back step one (or two, or five, or any!) at will.
Good luck with dabbling in digital, though. If you ever feel you need any pointers, I'll be more than glad to help: I really, really like your work.
