Just felt like sharing a few thoughts on my art process lately.
As a long-time artist, I've always known that the core logic and rendering methods for light and shadow remain the same, no matter the medium. Yet, even with a solid workflow in mind, shifting to a different creative tool still brings subtle differences to the final piece.
I've always been a Photoshop user, where my digital painting routine is deeply ingrained. PS offers so much flexibility with layers and blending effects, making it effortless to fine-tune details. Because of that, my desktop pieces usually turn out a bit more polished, intricate, and honestly, a tad more efficient to make.
On a recent short trip, however, the urge to draw forced me to switch things up. I've never quite gotten used to drawing on an iPad, and I have immense respect for artists who create masterpieces on it. This time, I tried painting Kris in Procreate, and the process felt much closer to traditional painting. Due to some of the software's limitations, I ended up merging everything and working almost entirely on a single layer toward the end. While it wasn't the easiest way to manage layer effects, it allowed me to leave behind more raw, intuitive brushstrokes.
When comparing pieces I've made in different software (PS, CSP, Procreate),I can always spot subtle differences. I wonder—as viewers, can you tell the difference, or is it just me?
