Month of Love: Black
"Hey Charlie Brown, would you say the sky is blue?" - "Well, mostly yes, but there's a bit of yellow there and some purple here, and green over there...." (quoting from memory). Black is the same.
My name is Jennifer S. Lange; you can find my website at https://www.jsl-art.de but my main gallery site(s) these days are deviantArt http://ranarh.deviantart.com/ and Artstation https://www.artstation.com/ranarh This digital painting was done for the first Month of Love 2018 challenge, "Black". I had painted a material study years ago of a woman dressed all in black, with a floating jellyfish, and this plays off that idea. After some charcoal scribbles, I got refs and made a proper drawing with charcoal and chalk on toned paper, to use as underdrawing, but mostly overpainted it. First I set things up in Photoshop and then painted it in Painter 2016, with the Artists's Oils brushes doing the heavy lifting.
