ARTIST’S PROCESS:
The Succulent Painting Series was painted in Procreate on a 13″ iPad Pro using the Apple Pencil Pro. Layered digital brushwork builds the depth and texture of traditional painting for each piece in this set of four. A careful structural drawing was made for each succulent plant detailing their unique. Color blocking for each plant’s structure and its planter followed by multiple rounds of detail work and value refinement on the different textures and characteristics for each plant in the series. A final set of layers perfecting shadow and light was created using Procreate brushes appropriate to the scale of the subject and seasonal lighting source to finalize each version.
CHALLENGE:
Since this series represents 4 completely different types of succulent a watercolor wash was chosen for the background across the series with the only difference being the color choice for the wash to compliment the individual plants. Multiple layers and a soft, round Procreate watercolor brush was used to lay down a main background wash and a soft round Procreate brush was used to dab appropriate colors or muted details into the background wash allowing the added colors to spread out over the primary color completing the season quietly in the background of each painting.
