You have such a beautiful and unique art style and I've been a fan of your cats especially for a long while. These bubbles always look amazing in your paintings, so thank you for sharing this. Without it I'd have been utterly lost on how to even attempt one

On the off chance you're interested, I used this tutorial for this image: [link] since I've been dying to try these for a while.

I hope you continue to find enjoyment in art and keep doing it because you have a real talent for it

No problem

And thank you; I did forget to distort it, but I was quite happy for a first attempt, so I appreciate that ^^

Maybe you could do a video-tutorial about this one?
I'm Swedish so I don't understand what you mean sometimes,
so it would have been easier if you did a video about it ^^
I really like those bubbles

yourbigbrowneyes [2012-07-07 20:55:59 +0000 UTC]

I just have one really important question! How did you make certain spots brighter? Was that a light render? On the upper-right corner of your bubble, you made it very bright, it looks like a true reflection? How di you do that? It doesnt seem like it could be just the soft default brush? :/

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

MrsGunsoul In reply to yourbigbrowneyes [2013-12-02 15:45:51 +0000 UTC]

I'd say the really bright parts are easy to create with just plain white color and if you like, add a little blur tool for a softer look. (: Ir you wonder about the "glow" that they reflect, it's all about opacity -- and again, if you want it to look softer, a lil' blur tool.
