2019ARTWRK020 - Titled "Baby Love"
The Story of the Drawing:
This drawing - painting is actually referenced from a photo I took in New Hampshire. I usually don't work in colour as I have a red green slight color blind issue. But lately I have become more comfortable working in color by making sure my color palette in corel painter and photoshop is limited to the color range I want to use and having my wife check the final artwork for correct coloring. This is one of my newer artworks created in January 2019.
These two cubs are so cute, they were part of a family of three cubs and a very caring and protective mother. I love black bears and had the opportunity to photograph these cubs in a patients property, where I camped out and got some adorable photos. I used some of these photos as a reference for this artwork.
Since our semi retirement, I have had a lot of inspiration to more art, both in the painting and drawing categories as well as the wood burning art and carvings we do. I January I had the vision of creating a wildlife color series with the grunge edge effects and blending I love so much in most of my art.
It was created on a computer using digital painting techniques and tools. The main items being Adobe Photoshop, Corel Painter and Wacom drawing tablet and hand drawn ink effects. Part of the elements were hand drawn using traditional Pen and Ink Techniques which were scanned back into a computer for inclusion in the art
