Gumnuts is one of several paintings created from a lone flowering gum in the a local carpark. In this painting of the tree I am interested in the depth of the painting , the greens contrasting with the blue of the sky and the gum nuts themselves.
My artwork's journey starts from initial shots I take on my phone. When I see something I want to paint, I look for the depth and angles I want to paint and frame the photo accordingly. I then use the photograph as a reference for the painting I create in Procreate, the artists app I use on my iPad Pro.
Many digital artists utilise the features in the app to create their work. I don't, my finished artwork is created on one layer and then my signature added, painted in the acrylic style I previously used. Currently I can create works that fine art print onto canvas to 100 x 100 cm at full quality. I choose to paint digitally for several reasons, my health, convenience and simply because I love it. I hope you love the artworks I produce.
