With verve into the light

Fluidy fish and natural bird!

[Taron]

All fantastic! It's so much goodness, I don't know where to start! LOVE the Elster!
But it's all so pretty. And I dig your Verve seal, too!
Amazing, my friend, just great!

Beautiful stroke on the fish Knacki and the rest of the oriental set has a delicate touch. The Elster however has flown you into a different plane. Very vivid and tight work

powerful style like Indian ink

Thanks so much guys!
@Ozmalight
Thank you
It's a pleasure to see you back. I really do hope to see some more verve magic from your side soon again.
It's always so inspiring!

No time for verve! That was my battle for today....that I lost.
After doing this little "convert any texture into a verve canvas" TUTORIAL
and made this elephant skin as canvas, I thought it would be cool to do some quick painting on it.

This is just half resolution of original.

I like how you try for different styles Knacki. The tribal style you are invoking works and that's a cool experiment with the elephant skin. So many possibilities! I kind of think it would be cool to mix your oriental style with the Elster shading heh

I wanted to do some watercolor canvas.
After, I tried to copy rcpongo watercolor stuff, RCpongo
Failed a bit in that but it was a kind of watercolor feeling.
Today, I tried to reopen the 330MB file Stupid me left two layers for the canvas in project.
Too big - access violation.

Ok. no prob as I had a png backup but I lost my canvas.
So I did the foreground in a different way.


It's called "Summer peace". The guy sitting there could be you

Except the goose - no reference.

Quiteful!

You are on fire Knacki ! Beautiful peaceful scene, watercolorish color gradient, composition, lighting, and the bernaches are perfect
Thanks also for the "canvas import" tutorial, given the convincing results I will certainly try !

Oh, I would like to be there! Little bit different style than I know from you and very very good style! You choose right calm and nice colors that fit to the scene. I like overall freshness in your picture and calm atmosphere. Well done, Knacki!
That little bird is lovely!
