Digital Art (Drawings and Paintings)

[Luca]

I was really surprised to see that there isn't a thread on here about digital art... maybe it was old and I missed it? Anyway, I've posted a few of my drawings and paintings, and I'm a little shy about showing more of them off... I know my style isn't everyone's cup of tea. I've gotten some pretty harsh criticisms of my art when I was a student, that really hurt my feelings (I'm aware that I'm not the best at what I do, but I'm sensitive because it's a passion of mine), so I'll politely explain that I'm not looking for a critique... I'm looking to share my interest with others who might enjoy it, and encourage others to share their own works
I do two different styles; more traditional drawings that are basic and have bold colors, and digital paintings. I use a Huion Kamvas tablet with a stylus and I draw in Photoshop. I've only been drawing this way for about a year. I'm much more experienced with traditional drawing and painting but I feel like they come out nicer digitally.
I do a lot of self-portraits, because I'm not a selfie person and I don't have a lot of photos of me, and I'm more comfortable expressing myself with art (my drawings are as accurate to my appearance as possible though, imperfections included... I don't try to draw myself as a thin person, because that would be dishonest). I also draw animals, mostly dogs, since dogs are my Special Interest. But I draw cats, birds, and horses too, I just don't have a good example of any of those to share at this point in time. I generally draw from memory but sometimes I use references.
I'll stop myself before I ramble too long again, although it looks like I already have...
Here's my art!

Here are a few I did for a friend who breeds Border Collies...

Here's a portrait I drew for my friend who has a Pointer who is a new Grand Champion...

Drew this one for a friend who has Great Danes...

Two of my own dogs...

My dog competing in Flyball...

Here are a few of me with my own dogs (it's hard to get my skin tone correct, sorry for the inconsistency!)

Here are some self-portraits, and a painting of me and my best friend... and I do actually have freckles! They just don't look quite like that, lol... I didn't know how else to draw them without making them look like pimples. My eyebrows really are darker than my hair, that's not a mistake. I already posted a couple of these but I'm including them here because they're still artwork.

And last one, I promise, this is a Fawn Doberman and a Blue Doberman.

Digital art reminds me of interpolated rotoscoping like this

@crewlucaa_ , these are great!
My own digital drawing skills are not great but I love to do it anyway. I had a wacom tablet for many years but when it died I couldn't replace it. My Samsung is almost as good, good enough for my skill any way.

@crewlucaa_ , I think your digital drawings are awesome. Thank you so much for posting them!

 

[Nightingale121]

I like your art, @crewlucaa_.

I found an old thread about digital art:
Digital Artwork

Most of my stuff lately has been for album covers. I'm really into digital collage/manipulation, but sometimes I draw a thing or two.

Spoiler: Buskers albums (so far)

 

[tkcartoonist]

I completed this future album cover last night.

 

[Isadoorian]

I've got a couple things: An entry for a Halloween art contest in one of my other online groups, and my Tumblr Header. I do have one of a Space Scene but it's too large to fit here, however it's in one of my Albums here on the Forums (in the Media section).

I've recently learnt that I quite enjoy drawing on the computer, only been giving it a proper go for the last 2 days but this what I've done so far, they're based on pictures I took in South Africa...

This is the one I'm currently working on, not too far off from finishing but spending a lot more time on it than the first two.

 

[tkcartoonist]

This is something I made for a video I'm working on.

Digital corrections/enhancements on drawings are kind of fun. Does this count as a digital drawing? Because I draw like a lobotomized orang-outan. If you haven't guessed the theme of this drawing is "college finals."

This was sketched with black ink on paper using a cheap but effective fountain-pen that was included with the ink.

Digital programs used: MS Word for adjustment to contrast, Photos to crop it out.

Here are my newest ones

Girl drummer (original character, not supposed to be a real person… although she looks a lot more like me than I intended )
And closeup of details on her face, which I’m pretty happy with!

And Maria Franz from Heilung, in her stage outfit and corpse makeup… I’m VERY proud of this one!!! Took me a few days to finish lol.

 

[Skittlebisquit]

I like the last one best, Hielung is my favorite band. Thanks for sharing.

I love your style! I particularly adore your dog portraits!

@crewlucaa_ Your art would look really good as a print, especially the ones with flat colors. It reminds me a lot of my drawings, but much more realistic haha

Wow, thank you both so much!!

This looks weird because it is a photo of my ipad.
I did the drawing directly on the ipad while watching the snow slowly cover the line of trees at the back of the yard. It was one of those sadder than usual days.

 

[vexiron]

All of these drawings are simply wonderful! I can't wait to share my artwork with everyone here!
