Working from reference ( or from life) and working from imagination feel different to me. I love working from life or reference, because the process then is about how I choose to translate what I see into brushstrokes. I think purely visually. When working from imagination, I tend to think more about what I make. Here I tried to work as intuitively as I do when working from reference. I did do a quick initial sketch, but allowed the paint to lead the way. Gouache is a very forgiving medium, and you can make adjustments almost like you would digitally. Well.. without the undo button of course... At a certain point, I added the cube in there and decided to make this a promotional illustration for @digitalbobert ‘s @lightboxexpo If you haven’t heard of it yet, check out lightboxexpo.com This is going to be an amazing event for everyone who loves animation, live action, illustration and games. • • • #gouachepainting #sketchbook #paintingfromimagination #artistsoninstagram #diving #illustration #woutertulp #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BwG6zCEFpmH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5r7xm40ob6kl
