hey your work is realy good !! you made it with photoshop? i like realy ... good work
This is a great insight into your process. Do you go through this process every time, with the value swatches on the canvas? I never even thought about putting a palette on the canvas, makes perfect sense though!
Jason...great little mini-tutorial into your process. Also, your bro is wearing a Badger hat which makes the piece even better. Late,
Jim
Thanks guys! As for my painting process . . . sometimes I do a full value painting and then drop color in . . . it's the easiest way to keep your values, and then build from there. But a lot of times I just start with color and build from that . . . what I've shown here is just one way to approach it. My class will be much more in depth.
i love your "demos", cheers jason!
Thank you much "ihatedesign" !
Great work Jason! It's fascinating to see the process that you use - really inspiring stuff! You have much talent sir!
Thanks for the awesome demos. I hope to take the class once I get out of school. I hope you are still offering it then. BTW, for your professional/freelance work do you ever do a painting in oil, etc..scan it in, and tweak it digitally?
take care,

Thank you Francis, would be great if you took the class . . . I will most likely be doing this for a while.
As for your question . . . if I paint something traditionally . . . oil, acrylic, or watercolor, I leave it as it is. I will sometimes tweak the contrast or saturation, but only to get the scan or photo to match the original correctly.
Nice one! Thanks for posting the process!
It looks so easy when you do it.. thanks for this mini tutorial.. awesome!!..
love it!!! hhahahaaaa....
