Schoolism - Digital Painting with Craig Mullins: Week 1 + 2

Week 1 of this course focuses on seperating light from shadow, focussing on their shapes.
Portraits done in PS, Skull in Procreate using an iPad Pro.






In week 2 Craig shows two seperate approaches of starting a painting.
1. Starting out with 3 values using hard edges to get the main shapes right and taking it from there,
2. Slowly building up a painting, starting out with low contrast/soft edges and going from there.

The first method is a lot quicker, while the second method offers a little more control. Combining these two methods would be ideal. Progress shots can be found on the left while the final works are shown on the right.
