I’ve done a few self portraits throughout the project and each time they seem to be when I need to experiment with a different style (or have nothing to use but an iPad).
This time around isn’t great in my mind as I have a hard time trying to “paint” with the Wacom in the same way I normally paint on canvas which is the effect I was going for. (I should add I use Illustrator 99% of the time for this project, I have never really bothered venturing into Photoshop or Painter to try and paint digitally).
When I try this style I find the results end up looking technically right but with no texture and dimension… flat in other words! 🙂

This is really good, I’m a big fan of illustrator and it’s where all my graphics work starts since 2008. This image is impressive though, I love the 3d element to the image.
