Illustration:
The Tree Boy
Approximate time to complete: 1 - 1 ½ hours.
Program used: Paint Tool SAI
Inspiration: A beautiful night at the park.
This quick project was especially fun for me. I often take inspiration from nature and my surroundings, and texture is one of my favorite principles to emulate. Being a digital artist, I understand that texture in a design can bring a flat composition to life.
For this project texture was used to set the tone of the piece, and is present in every stroke. The night that I was inspired to create this piece, I observed the textures surrounding me one night at the park, with the moon over head. I knew I absolutely had to incorporate it into my illustration.
