Description
I remember way back when I started doing a lot of environments with characters because the majority of my images were often backgroundless with more attention to the figure and backgrounds added as an after thought. Now however, after a year and a half of pursuing more detailed background environments (particularly outdoor scenes). In a strange twist of fate, I feel more comfortable with landscapes than figures, which implies that I'll have to start doing more figural work. In the meantime, after a long hiatus brace yourself for many landscapes.ΒRelated content

I totally relate to what you wrote ! I thought I sucked at environments so I studied them a lot. Nowadays, I find figures way more difficult to paint than say, trees rocks and clouds. In the painting I'm currently doing, I spent almost half my time struggling to paint a relatively small figure while easily painting the environment around it. I've also discovered that I find landscapes much more fun to paint than figures

I agree after having done many a landscape, I find them far more enjoyable. I can appreciate the beauty of form but with landscapes... there's just so much more going on. With a single figure you're locked into a pose a body, an expression and a light source... whereas with an environment there can be all manners of things going on as you are rendering not the subject but the literal canvas of your world, with it's own internal logic and rules and thus more opportunities to just run wild. 
And thank you~

You really managed to capture the look of falling rain. Something about the water I love the most and how the droplets are bouncing off of it.

Definitely favorite part of the piece as well. Β Β I've certainly gotten more experimental with how I apply watercolor after taking some time off for myself, which becomes more apparent in later pieces. Thank you!Β

Same.Β Β There's something quite beautiful about the rain that I wanted to capture but then I tend to be drawn to movement.
