Burning Tree

Description

A new digital painting. For this piece I focused on speed and efficiency of my work. I tend to take a month or more on my pieces. This one was probably just shy of 4-5hrs of work. I tend to be around 12-18hrs normally.

The painting was first sketched in the Brushes 3 app for iPhone, and then imported into Photoshop CS6, where I did all the detail and compositing work.

This is a very wonderful piece of work. I love the thought, detail, and work put into this. The fact that the surrounding trees are blurred, as if the picture is a camera focusing on something beyond them, is a very proffessional quality. Another would be the fact that the masterfully created lighting, from the misty feel, to the specks of light blowing from the subject tree. The way that the tree glows, matched with the way the flecks of light slowly morph into the little circles like the ones you would see in a camera while focusing, or while pointed at a light, gives the illusion of photography. the only thing I might think to call out in error is the little shrub by the tree. The blurriness there shifts quite suddenly into clarity. Other than this, though, the piece is a magnificent work, and I am glad to have chanced upon it. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
