I went through and made some simple adjustments to levels and color saturation to most of my paintings - you can see the new versions above and the old ones below. It's amazing how much of a difference it can make! So tempting to crank up saturation and blacks, but so damaging. The interesting thing (or maybe not) - if not for digital painting capabilities I wouldn't have been able to fix these so easily without repainting them, but I also wouldn't have been able to screw them up so easily in the first place. Though I suppose these kind of adjustments could always be made to illustrations during photography.
This is a personal journal documenting my studies in art - mainly just a place to keep notes and to organize my thoughts better than I could in a handwritten journal (you can't do a search in a paper journal, or post live links). My ultimate goal is oil painting, but I want to start with developing my grasp of the basics in drawing.
