Experiments in Digital Painting

Digital painting is an amazing way to learn to be a better painter. What you create on your ipad can be the finished product, or you can experiment with textures and layers to bring new ideas to your "analog" paintings. I am pretty obsessed with it. The range of what you can do is endless - which is great, and well, endless. Finding a place to stop iterating is a real challenge. That part I haven't figured out - but it's a fabulous problem to grapple with... These images show an experiment with reducing an image to 3-4 values, and then playing around with various overlays, brush textures and color palettes.
