I worked this week on a nocturne scene and a copy of Joon's skull shrine scene. For my concept I took inspiration from a wytch character I wrote about awhile ago. A character associated with the deep north and the seas. I found this killer picture of the night sky and that comet (? diagonal line?) streaking across the sky and that diagonal got me to thinking of these other diagonal shapes. Pretty soon I realized that this was feeling right for my character.
Now, I normally wouldn't just include an image in my painting in this way like a backdrop. I suppose I did alter and stretch this image to fit my design's needs, but I still feel a little sacrilege just letting a picture and it's jpeg artifacts sit out there in full view 🤷♀️ I'm sitting with it, and trusting the process, haha. I'm mostly happy with this, but I will probably revisit the little glowing white triangles and the large boulder shape before I decide to include in on my portfolio page. Idk, there is something I need to either change or accept, but I'm not sure yet.
