Description Trying to get back into painting, so I painted this. Subject is random and spontaneous. I guess it's some magical storm forming over some sacred rock outcropping on a hilltop.

Acrylic on Bristol plate. (Scanner totally ruined the colors, there's a lot of lost subtlely in the blues and the yellows got really blown out.)

I think this is pretty great, the yellows and oranges and such against the blues looks really nice!

This has a really nice feel to it. Good composition. The scanner may have ruined the original colors, but these arn't bad

Thank you!

Well they didn't completely ruin them, just blew them out, losing a lot of the detail. I just need to find a good way to photograph paintings once I start doing bigger ones (I'm planning on it).

I use a camera for my paintings and it doesn't retain the original color completely but it's definately better than a scanner. And if you can, use the panorama mode on your camera so you get more detail in the end result.

And your welcome ^^

Yeah I think I'll try to photograph paintings in the future. I'm not so concerned about the color since I can adjust the color/levels in Photoshop. All I need is a good light setup.

The scanner may have ruined the colors. But it still is a magical picture of epic proportions!
