More from Background Layout Class


A series of cityscapes using an abstract technique - I compile 5 totally different, unrelated images in photoshop, change up the opacity/layer channels/etc and draw whatever comes in through the mess. It's kind of like an ink blot test - at first it just looks like a pile of messed up, upside down images, but after awhile - and with imagination and sleep deprivation - an image slowly comes through. It's the first time I've ever used this technique, it's hard but the results are really unique and interesting.

This is the first of three. At the time I was fighting bronchitis, so I felt like I was exploding inside - that leaked out into my painting somehow.
