EARLY ACCESS // overcast skies
Added 2021-03-16 10:58:38 +0000 UTCI’ve been hiking a lot this winter, and seen a lot of this kind of view: heather fields with overcast skies. It’s typical dutch nature during this time of year. Here are some quick studies, in which I played around with textured brushes to get the clouds right. There’s also some close-ups and the original ref photos!

thank you! I think my tutorial about drawing landscapes from reference gives some insight into this, here's the link if you haven't seen it already! https://www.patreon.com/posts/tutorial-44069788

2021-03-17 17:23:52 +0000 UTCI think what makes these especially charming is the incredibly accurate lighting paired with the expressive shapes and strokes you use to create the work. It's such a pleasure to look at. Thank you for sharing!

2021-03-16 18:01:48 +0000 UTCI'm so happy to see you branch into other subjects. The beautiful portraits you do must surely make a living for you, but pushing into other topics has to broaden your skill and your impact. Keep it up!

2021-03-16 11:08:49 +0000 UTCyeah it's a rough time. hopefully we can return to normal life soon. I miss going to germany too, we've been to some areas near the border and were sad that we couldn't hike in germany :( thank you for your kind words by the way!
Loish
2021-03-16 11:08:46 +0000 UTCThey are so beautiful! German Münsterland looks very much like that, which isn‘t much of a surprise given the short geographical distance. Love it! I miss going over to the Netherlands. My parents in law live so close, that on hikes we‘re like „we could walk there“ and they‘re answering „no, we can‘t, that‘s netherlands, we‘re not allowed now“... 😩
