3-D Man

3-D Man

Art requires experimentation. You mustn’t be afraid to try new tools, processes, workflows, or styles. This is how you move forward.

This image began in Wasabi ( a painting app on my iPad). I then made a second version with ToonPaint and experimented with combining the two images in ArtRage and modifying the combination with Pixlromatic and Glaze. Here’s a collage of the process.

When I look at this image, it’s like I’m wearing 3-D glasses. The reds float in front of the screen and the blues push back below the screen. It looks like the colors are painted on different sheets of glass stacked up on each other. It must have something to do with my astigmatism.
